In fact a one-year-old girl is battling a rare form of cancer called Holly BT Neuroblastoma. BT has been fighting the disease since July 2018. Despite two years of treatment, BT has not yet fully recovered.
Beatty underwent surgery last September in a tumor about three centimeters from her brain. After this, BT’s family members became very upset because it was necessary to begin their treatment immediately after surgery. Some treatments will be held in New Zealand, while others will have to travel to BT Spain. The overall cost of treatment is very high.
