Parents' lives 'changed forever' after baby went for scan on first birthday

A one-year-old baby was diagnosed with an "unthinkable" cancer after going for an MRI scan on her birthday.

The family of Hallie Evans is living through a "horrific nightmare" as the one-year-old battles through gruelling chemotherapy. The baby was diagnosed with inoperable neuroblastoma in her lower spine after going for an MRI on a birthmark at Alder Hey Children's Hospital.
