Doctors Kept Telling Her It Was Just An Eye Infection, Mom Realizes They Are Very Wrong After Discovering (Video)

A girl named Stella Robson had came down with a swollen eye, and her parents brushed it off as an ordinary eye infection that soon would go away. But it did not. The 6-year-old’s eye only continued to swell, despite a clinic doctor claiming that it was nothing to worry about. But it was.

Desperate, Stella’s mother, Gaylene Robson, decided to consult an ophthalmologist who was working at Royal Children’s Hospital located in Melbourne. A CT scan was carried out to find the cause of Stella’s swollen eye.

The scan showed a bell-shaped tumor which was rapidly growing at an alarming rate in between Stella’s eye and her brain. It was cancerous to boot.

Stella was diagnosed with Langerhans cell histiocytosis, a rare bone tumor. This was devastating news for Stella’s family, as it required a high amount of risk.

The tumor measured 1.5 cm, and it was nested in between Stella’s orbital bone and her eye. If left untouched, Stella could lose her sense of sight!

The Tumor grew fast, which meant that poor Stella needs to be treated ASAP. Stella’s scans showed that the only way to remove the tumor was through chemotherapy, which is known to be an extremely painful procedure.

Stella underwent a period of 12 weeks consisting of chemotherapeutic sessions. This was to ensure that the tumor would not spread to the rest of her body.

And it was a huge success!

Today, Stella has been declared cancer-free with only a 20% chance of relapsing, which was fabulous news for her and her family.

Parents, always get a second opinion regarding your child’s health – as it could save their lives.
