A British girl who raised $180,000 to travel to the US for life-saving cancer treatment is now in remission.
Six-year-old Erin Cross has battled acute lymphoblastic leukaemia for three years and had exhausted all other treatment options. Her only chance of beating the disease was to have a bone marrow transplant - but needed to be in remission first. And so her parents Sarah and Anthony discovered a clinic in the US which they believed to be their last hope. After months of experimental tests, Erin was discharged from Seattle Children's Hospital last week. And on Wednesday, back home in Chester, they received a phone call - to say she is officially in remission.
