A mum of five is racing to give birth to her new baby and get married after doctors warned her she could die at any time when they found acute Myeloid Leukaemia. Carrie Dodds, 40, was diagnosed on June 26 and doctors said she may not survive for more than a day.
Carrie, who is currently 25 weeks pregnant, hopes to fulfill her dream of marrying her partner, Shaun, and will hopefully be induced at 32 weeks. She will then be able to try stem cell treatment.
Since being diagnosed, Carrie said she has been in and out of hospital for six weeks. She now returns every day for therapy, reports LancsLive.
