A team of top UK surgeons saved the life of eight-year-old Trinny Amuhirwe after removing a football-sized bone cancer tumour from her face. The schoolgirl could have been suffocated to death by the two kilogram tumour, which covered her eye, nose and face. But now she can smile again after a 15-hour long operation to remove the bone cancer tumour, lead by surgeon Niall Kirkpatrick, at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital. UK charity Facing the World organised the mammoth life-saving surgery to remove the bone cancer tumour, flying Trinny from her home in Uganda to the UK with mum Sarah, 30.
Hopefully they can give her some more surgery as well. She accepts things as they are now but when she gets older her looks will really matter to her. People like this should be treated for free. So many people getting surgery for stuff they did to themselves like obesity etc. This girl was given no choice.
