A teenager has shared how she remains positive and keeps smiling despite living with terminal cancer. Margaret Adcock, known as Maggie, was diagnosed alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma on May 27, 2022 at Queen's Medical Centre in Nottingham, which is one of the most aggressive forms of cancer in children.
The 17 year old was told that the cancer has spread to her bone marrow and possibly her ovaries. Maggie undertook chemotherapy and by Christmas the scans showed that Maggie had control of the disease. However, on January 26, after she started maintenance chemotherapy, Maggie developed a severe headache and further scans showed doctors that the cancer had spread to her brain.
After being told that she may only have a weeks or months left to live Maggie is planning to pursue her love of travel and see the world in the time she has left. Despite the difficult news Maggie has remained strong and positive reports Derbyshire Live.
