When little Rachael Young was born with more than 100 tumours on her body, she was not expected to survive.
The benign tumours were growing in every one of the newborn’s major organs, including her heart. And her condition was so rare that medics told Rachael’s devastated parents to prepare for the worst.
But after taking part in a pioneering research trial, the youngster has amazed doctors with her recovery – and the 20-month-old is now completely tumour-free.
