Couple in desperate race to sell family home in the next WEEK to fund daughter's cancer treatment after doctors say she won't live until Christmas without it


  • Frankie-Rose Lea was diagnosed with a rare brain tumour in August
  • Doctors had dismissed her symptoms as growing pains five times 
  • Since starting chemotherapy, the growth has tripled in size and spread to the seven-year-old's spine - leaving medics unsure of how long she has left
  • Proton beam therapy is her best chance of survival, experts say
  • But applying for the treatment on the NHS will take eight weeks 
  • Michelle and Sam Lea have put £220,000 home on market for just £170,000
  • They are desperate to sell in the next week to fund the therapy in the US
  • Mrs Lea said: 'Our house is all we have, but we will sell it to save her'
  • Family has set up a fundraising page to help raise the money needed  
  • More than £20,000 was donated and this second page was set up to help cope with demand
  • For more information, visit her Facebook Page
