Bristol parents’ desperate search for last chance treatment as toddler diagnosed with cancer for second time

A Bristol couple are in a final desperate bid to save their four-year-old daughter Raeyah’s life after she was diagnosed with cancer for a second time. Medics have told them there is nothing more they can do to treat the toddler.

Kevin Rice and his partner, Rebecca Evans from Emersons Green say they have barely slept since the diagnosis after a heart breaking journey over the past year. Their nightmare started when in December 2021, Raeyah was taken to hospital by ambulance after being ill and vomiting for a couple of days.

Her dad Kevin said a large tumour was found on the toddler’s left kidney as well as a spot of cancer on her left lung. He said: “In February they removed her kidney and then she had a 12-hour operation on her lung and that removed all the cancer.”
