A new mum who was told she wouldn't be able to have a baby following her aggressive cancer treatment has spoken of the joy she felt when she discovered she was pregnant. Dizzy Dalton, from London, was devastatingly diagnosed with stage four lymphoma, a type of blood cancer, at the age of 25.
Her first round of chemotherapy failed to get rid of the cancer therefore she had to go down another route of treatment that could have seen her highly likely to become infertile - but it cured her. A year after being cancer-free, Dizzy thought she was experiencing an early menopause when her period stopped for three months, given what her body had been through and what doctors had warned about.
But after thinking it would never be possible, Dizzy has now shared her story of hope this Christmas following the birth of her 'miracle baby girl' and the gratitude she has for those that saved her life.
