'I held in my hands the very thing that was killing my little girl. It was a chilling experience'
When Stephen Bennett discovered his youngest daughter, Leah, had cancer, he knew exactly who to turn to for support. The 42-year-old was able to rely on his childhood friends who had faced their own cancer diagnoses and lost loved ones to the disease, the Liverpool Echo reports.
Now 10, Leah is having medication from home, which is keeping her stable. She is back playing with her football team, and in September she will join her 13-year-old sister, Phoebe when she starts high school. David said: "Ste's daughter Leah was diagnosed shortly after me. Her treatment, although slightly different was still similar enough to share with Ste how it made me feel.
James, a self-employed builder, said: “The hardest part for me this past year is how to process the fact that I have had cancer. But when I compare this to young Leah who has battled and is still battling this cruel disease there is no comparison, and this is what inspired me to climb Kilimanjaro.”
