A Sherwood mum and daughter are trying to raise awareness of a rare type of cancer. Emma Johnson, 40, has been diagnosed with translocational renal cell clear carcinoma and the pair are fundraising for alternative treatments.
They also want to raise awareness of kidney cancer and the impact it can have on individuals and their loved ones. The mum of six has been told she is now at stage four and so is looking towards treatments such as oxygen tanks, Gerson therapy, health retreats, organic foods and CBD oils.
Emma was diagnosed in 2017 after finding blood in her urine. Her daughter Chloe Barton, 21, said: "The cancer is translocational so that means it is rare and means that it moves around the body but you cant see it until it has grown a bit. It is more common in children than adults, so why my mum has got it as an adult we do not really know."
