See Ross Parry Copy RPYHUG : A little girl who learned she had cancer after her grandma gave her a HUG is now fighting fit as a prize-winning dancer. Hope Faraday had to have her right kidney removed after her nan Mavis Whitaker felt a lump pressing through the youngster's stomach, detecting a rare Wilms tumour. After a rushed trip to A&E, doctors confirmed her family's fears, and put her through an intensive six-week course of chemotherapy. Thomas Temple/rossparry.co.uk
