Ruby is 2 years old from Rainham.. She is facing a 45% chance of survival after contracting a rare and aggressive form of the illness. 

Neuroblastoma often starts in the tummy (abdomen), commonly in the adrenal glands or the nerve tissue at the back of the abdomen. But it can spread to other parts of the body, such as the bones, liver and skin, through the blood and lymphatic system

Because neuroblastoma usually develops in the abdomen, the most common symptom is a lump in the tummy. This may make the child’s tummy swell, causing discomfort or pain. Sometimes neuroblastoma can appear as a lump in the neck, perhaps causing breathlessness or difficulty in swallowing. 

Neuroblastoma commonly spreads to the bones and can cause pain and difficulty in walking. Occasionally it can affect the spinal cord causing numbness, weakness and loss of movement in the lower part of the body.

Support has come flooding in for the two-year-old as her family channel their efforts into raising money to help Ruby and other children beat the disease.

The first signs that she was unwell was when she lost her love of food, especially cheese. She had just celebrated her second birthday with parents Vikki and Rob and older brother Freddy when she became ill. 

After a biopsy doctors revealed that Ruby has neuroblastoma, an aggressive childhood cancer affecting just 100 children each year in the UK. 

It is at an advanced stage and Ruby is facing a tough journey to get better. 

The cancer affects part of the nervous system and has spread throughout Ruby’s body. At one point the tumour in her stomach was pressing on her internal organs and her belly was swelling up and pushing on her lungs. She could hardly breathe and needed oxygen.

Other vague symptoms included a wheezy chest. 

Initial treatment is available on the NHS, but there is an 80% chance of neuroblastoma returning and at that point the NHS will no longer offer treatment. 

This little girls family need to raise approximately £500 thousand too take her to the us to get life changing surgery.

Please give all that you can! & Thank you for helping and supporting this beautiful amazing little girl!
