It’s one of those things that you never expect to happen to those closest to you. When it does, your world crumbles down around you.
That’s exactly what happened for a family in Utah when eight-year-old Chrissy Turner was diagnosed with breast cancer.
She is believed to be the youngest ever breast cancer patient after discovering a lump on her chest.
Doctors sent her for further tests which found that she has a rare form of breast cancer called secretory carcinoma.

Her mother Annette told WKOW.com: “Only 1 in one million are diagnosed and she is the youngest that they’ve run across having this particular type of breast cancer.
“I broke down. It’s a struggle every day worrying about my family, about my husband and now my baby girl.”
Unfortunately this isn’t the only health problem the family have had to face. Annette herself is a cervical cancer survivor while her husband was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.
We can’t even imagine what this family is going through.
