A woman who was told she had 'growing pains' as a child lost her leg to cancer. Megan Squire was 11 when she started to feel pain and fatigue in her right leg.
Her mum Dianne took her to see her GP on many occasions and she was told it was simply growing pains. But the pain continued for months and Megan, from Maghull, Merseyside, was eventually referred for a scan.
It was then that they were told Megan had a form of bone cancer called Ewing sarcoma. Megan was in her first year of secondary school at the time and went straight on to chemotherapy at Alder Hey Children's Hospital in Liverpool, losing her hair.
