Can You Help Out This Brave Little Hammer As She Battles Cancer?
It was just after Christ-mas 2016 when we noticed our normally mischievous little girl was not herself - high temperatures, flu like symptoms.
We initially thought it was just a cold, but it seemed to get worse so we went to the doctors only to be told: ‘Your child is fine, just flu go home’.
It was progressively getting worse, with constant visits to the doctors to no avail.
Eventually we booked Isla in to see a private doctor in Brentwood.
We went in and straight away he thought he felt a lump in Isla’s stomach and we were asked to attend an ultrasound a few days later.
They told us that Isla had Neuroblastoma, a highly dangerous child cancer. Our lives from then changed dramatically.
