FAITH Dingle receives her cancer test results next week in Emmerdale – but hides the truth from her son Cain.
Cain – who’s yet to forgive Faith after her betrayal over his secret son Nate Robinson – rejected his mum after discovering her cancer may have returned in recent scenes.
However, after Brenda tore into him for treating Faith so cruelly, Cain finally forgave her last week and vowed to support her in her upcoming cancer battle.
Next week, Faith gets a call from hospital asking her to come in urgently and is left fearing the worst.
The following day, Sarah organises some activities at the HOP and invites Cain, and Faith decides not to ruin the big day by breaking her news.
However, when Cain quizzes her about her results she’s forced to admit she’s received them.
Cain is furious she’s kept the results hidden from him and casts her out of the family.

Speaking about her cancer storyline, Emmerdale star Sally Dexter – who plays Faith in the ITV soap – told the Mirror: “She’s scared, once you’ve been bitten by cancer it’s very easy to live in fear in some ways of it coming back.
“She doesn’t live in fear of it but it hovers at the back of her mind. It’s dramatic.
Talking about whether it could reunite her family, she added: “She doesn’t want to worry them or for them to accept her out of pity.
“She wants a real relationship with them again, and that matters to her more than anything and it’s a big deal.
“She would certainly hope [it would bring them closer] and would turn herself inside out to make that happen.
“But it certainly brings all of that to the forefront of things. The relationship is very dramatic and heartfelt.”
