“We have waited two and a half years for Daisy to ring the bell. It has been a roller coaster of hospital appointments, treatment and unexpected admissions not to mention the mental anguish no parent wants to experience.”
Daisy was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia in November 2017 at just 22 months old.
She has needed numerous trips to hospital since then and often had to stay in for up to three days at a time while she was treated.

But now she has had even better news as she has won her battle with leukaemia.
Melissa added: “Daisy will still have regular bloody checks and remain under the oncology team for many years to come and will shortly undergo another surgery to remove her portacath which has been used to administer her chemotherapy.”
But she admitted that Daisy’s great news was “a little happiness in our crazy world at the moment.”
