A four-year-old boy was diagnosed with a rare cancer after chickenpox symptoms failed to clear up.
Calum Rae had chickenpox in January and when symptoms persisted his GP said it was a post-viral infection linked to shingles.
But the symptoms got worse, and the family, from Troon, South Ayrshire, were devastated to be told it was Stage M high-risk Neuroblastoma, an aggressive cancer with a high cancer of recurring.
