The brain tumor that Emmerdale villager Moira Dingle has been diagnosed with raises the possibility that she could be leaving the show soon.
Recently, Moira’s behavior has caused some alarm among her loved ones. In addition to personality changes, disorientation, and memory loss, Moira also experienced a seizure, which alarmed spectators at home.
And Moira wound up in the hospital this week following the start of a big fire in the barn. She underwent a CT scan and experienced another seizure while in the hospital, though.
Then the physicians informed Moira that they had discovered something on her brain. And on September 13, the beloved soap star received some news that would change his life.
Emmerdale Moira given brain tumour diagnosis
During Friday’s episode (September 13) Moira was still in the hospital following the barn fire, and awaiting further news. Ruby, who was involved in the fire, visited Moira as the pair spoke about what happened, appearing to put their feud behind them.
Later on, things took an emotional turn when a doctor informed Moira of what they found.
“I suspect what we’re looking at here is what’s called meningioma, which is a type of tumour that grows in the membrane,” the doctor said.
He then confirmed that she had a “particular type of tumour” and it was non-cancerous. However, he said he can’t be “entirely certain.”
Moira panics over news
On Emmerdale, the doctor then told Moira that the hospital would be having a meeting tomorrow about what steps they are going to take.
It was then revealed that the neurosurgeons would be visiting Moira – which left her stunned. She replied: “Neurosurgeon? So I’m going to be getting brain surgery?”
Moria then started to get emotional – which Cain soon comforted her, as she admitted: “It’s a lot to take in.””
Later, Cain reassured Moira that he would be there for her and that she was going to “beat” the tumour. He said: “I’m not losing you. You’re going to beat this and you’re going to come home. And I’m going to be there every step of the way.”
Is Moira leaving Emmerdale?
Moria, who set foot in the famous village back in 2009, is one of the soap’s beloved characters – and it’s fair to say viewers would be heartbroken to see her go.
But with Moira’s tumour being potentially non-malignant, could she end up surviving the horrific ordeal? Or will she meet a heartbreaking end as she contemplates surgery?
