Summary
- Chloe battled a brain tumor on her optic nerve for over three years.
- She underwent extensive treatment including surgery and proton beam therapy.
- Despite vision loss, she inspired many with her singing and positive spirit.
A young girl named Chloe, now nine years old, has received a special award from Cancer Research UK for her extraordinary bravery throughout a challenging three-and-a-half-year battle with a brain tumor. Initially diagnosed with an ear infection, Chloe's condition deteriorated, leading to the discovery of a tumor on her optic nerve.
Her treatment journey involved open brain surgery, proton beam therapy, and numerous rounds of chemotherapy due to two relapses. While Chloe is now partially sighted, with one eye significantly affected, her spirit remained unbroken, often lifting others' moods with her singing during daily treatments.
