Kira Noble: Emotional plea from brave teen’s mum as family has cancer setback
Setbacks can be frustrating, sometimes painful, but one extraordinary family – who have had more than their fair share to deal with – are refusing to let a devastating health blow stop them from finding the joy in life.
Firrhill High pupil Kira Noble, 15, nicknamed ‘Kira the Machine’, who has courageously faced the rare and aggressive cancer Neuroblastoma since she was 11, is now toe-to-toe with a new reality.
Results from a specialist Neuroblastoma test have now revealed that Kira’s cancer continued to grow in her pancreatic area and new spots of disease have emerged in her abdominal area following treatment last year in the Procure Proton Beam Therapy Centre, New Jersey. That means Kira’s disease is now classified as “refractory” – her third relapse.
Kira’s reaction to the news?
