Ella Formby-Smith was diagnosed with stage four neuroblastoma

A mum has said she feels 'let down' after her three-year-old daughter was diagnosed with cancer after having stomach issues her whole life.

“She’s been diagnosed as lactose and dairy intolerant and every other time we’ve been we were told its constipation or a viral infection." Ella was then referred to Alder Hey Children’s Hospital, where she underwent an ultrasound. The ultrasound revealed a large mass at the back of Ella’s stomach – and after an MRI the following week, she was tragically diagnosed with stage four neuroblastoma.

“I was just told it was a viral infection until we got to the point where she was that bad and I wanted something done. It gradually got worse over four weeks until she was crying with pain curled up in bed. “As soon as she went to Alder Hey it was 100 miles an hour – in the early hours of Saturday they took her down for ultrasound which was done instantly and picked up a mass in the back of her stomach. She is now on her seventh round of chemotherapy, she has it on tenth day for 80 days.
