That moment of time freezing, your life coming to a complete hault. All your senses stopping for those first few seconds. ‘I must be in the wrong room’ I thought to myself. But the worst part for me was, I was not truely surprised. Deep down I had known all along that my beautiful baby had

Something seriously wrong with her.

How had I, at the age of 23 become a victim of cancer? What had my perfect child who had just turned one done to deserve such cruelty already in her life?
