Eight-year-old Layla Stewart loves to dance and has been learning to dance at Toni Robinson Dance School in Maryborough.
Unfortunately, she was diagnosed with rare T cell Leukaemia at age six and has spent many months in hospital in Brisbane for treatment, suffering several severe side effects of treatment for conditions including blood clots and lung infections.
Her mother Jackie Stewart said her daughter was now in remission but still had another 18 months of treatments to go.
While in Brisbane, the family was supported by the Leukaemia Foundation.
âThe Leukaemia Foundation has been great, we didnât have to worry about we were staying when we went to Brisbane. They came to our hospital room and explained everything they do and have to offer,â Ms Stewart said.
