Hollie Beattie is a beautiful 7 year old Torbay girl who has been diagnosed with a rare form of cancer called Neuroblastoma. Despite receiving treatment for the last 2 years, the doctors have advised that they have exhausted treatment options in NZ and the last remaining option for a cure is a trial treatment that will need to be undertaken in Spain.
The costs associated of this are estimated to be at least of $400,000.
