| Quote: | HE looks like any happy toddler -but this one-year-old is suffering from a life-threatening condition which has spread cancer over his body.
Finley Ellis-Hall from Llanmartin has neuroblastoma , a disease which causes him to have tumours and lesions across his body and has robbed him of his sight.
Now his parents are trying an experimental radiotherapy treatment to try to prolong his life after 80 days worth of chemotherapy failed to clear up the cancer.
If he recieves the radiotherapy, he would be the youngest person to ever undergo the treatment.
They are also hoping to go to China or America for a pioneering op to help him see again -if they can raise £53,000.
Finley was diagnosed with the fast growing and aggressive illness in November -which, due to a tumour behind his face, has crushed his optic nerves.
If you can help the Ellis-Halls raise money call Mark on 07966553282.
