A brave mum has spoken out over the 'tough' challenges she faced after she lost her leg to cancer.
Chantelle Cox, 25, was previously diagnosed with a rare genetic condition called Neurofibromatosis which causes painful tumours to grow in the nervous system. But in September 2022, her life changed forever when she was told she had a very rare cancer known as Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumour.
On January 4, 2023, she had her right leg amputated above the knee on after cancerous tumours were discovered in her calf and ankle. Despite losing her limb, she now says she is embracing her new lease of life while encouraging others to fundraise for Cancer Research UK.
