Family's lives 'on hold' after daughter, 6, gets devastating cancer diagnosis

A devastated family has put their lives on hold after getting the devastating diagnosis of their daughter's cancer. Lexi-May was just six-years-old when they found out that she had a tumour in her kidney.

Since doctors told the family of the heartbreaking news in December 2019 Lexi-May's mumDanielle Pearce has had to "put my life on hold". Alarm bells rang when young Lexi-May came back from school and said "her side was hurting", Nottinghamshire Live reports.

Ms Pearce said: "I took her school clothes off and that is when I noticed a lump on the side, just below the ribs. I took her straight to the A&E." And this was the starting point for what was going to be "years spent mostly in hospitals", said the 30-year-old mum from Mansfield.
