Co Antrim girl diagnosed with brain tumour after falling down stairs now helping others

A young Co Antrim girl who found out she had a brain tumour after falling down a few stairs is now helping others over a year after her diagnosis.

Maggie McMillan, 14, from Randalstown, was diagnosed with a brain tumour in October 2020 when she was 12, four days before her 13th birthday.

She had an operation to remove the tumour, later heading to Manchester for proton therapy for six weeks and then beginning chemotherapy in February 2021 which was completed back in October.
