Mum 'knew something was wrong' when daughter kept falling over

A young girl who was told she would "struggle" daily will make history this month as she puts herself to the test.

Mum Sarah Hill knew something was wrong with her eldest daughter when she began falling over and walking into things. At just four-years-old, Faith Robertson was struggling to speak and her parents pushed for answers at Alder Hey when "nothing made sense".
