At just eight years old Grace Frazer has been through more than most people will experience in a lifetime.
The Walkerdene youngster was diagnosed with a brain tumour in December 2014, aged just 18 months, after parents, Darren Frazer and Fiona McGregor-Frazer, noticed that her development was not progressing as it should be.
The courageous little girl was taken to Newcastle's Great North Children's Hospital on the advice of her GP and within days she was having brain surgery to remove the golf ball-sized tumour.
