A GIRL with terminal cancer has been saved by a world-first treatment.
Alyssa, 13, was diagnosed with leukaemiain 2021 — but after chemotherapy and a bone marrow transplant her cancercame back.
Now mum Kiona, the cousin of fashion guru Gok Wan, said they are “on cloud nine”;; as Alyssa is in remission, thanks to treatment at London’s Great Ormond Street Hospital in May.
Doctors gave her a cutting-edge treatment made of white blood cells in a lab using gene editing.
Kiona said: “Hopefully this can prove the research works.”;;
Gok Wan, 48, raised nearly £54,000 for Young Lives vs Cancer last year by shaving his head live on This Morning.
