Brave girl, 6, given just 12 months to live after vomiting turned out to be brain tumour

A six-year-old girl who was diagnosed with a terminal brain tumour after she started vomiting on New Year's Eve has been "robbed of her childhood".

Lily McKelvey has been given up to 12 months to live following the tragic diagnosis. Medics discovered a mass in her brain after she began vomiting at the end of last year, Stoke Sentinel reported.

They identified it as a diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG). DIPGs are rare tumours which develop in the brainstem, and the outcomes are often catastrophic.

Lily now faces 13 radiotherapy sessions before doctors will make a decision on which course of treatment will be best suited for her.
