LONDON -- A British mum who lost her little girl to cancer has shared an emotional post on Married Woman Fan Club (2020)Facebook to help raise awareness of the disease.
Julie Apicella of Norfolk in December lost her daughter Emily after her long battle with Wilms' tumour, a cancer of the kidney.

"In July to August 2015 we came off the trial as it wasn't working and came home to make memories of our time left," Apicella said. "There were no treatments left to try."
Now, Apicella is attempting to raise awareness of childhood cancer by encouraging as many people as possible to add a gold ribbon to their profile picture.
Apicella's Facebook post had over 9000 shares at the time of writing.

"My daughter ran out of options and we as a family had to watch as her cancer took over her body with nothing to try and cure her and that is tragic," Apicella told the Huffington Post UK.
"I would like the gold ribbon of childhood cancer to be as recognised as the pink ribbon for breast cancer, and for the symptoms [of] cancer to be as recognised as the meningitis rash glass test by parents and doctors."
A list of the symptoms of Wilms' tumour can be found on Macmillan's website. More information about different types of childhood cancer can be found here.
