Woman who survived cancer twice gives birth to "miracle baby"

SWNS

A woman who survived cancer twice has given birth to a "miracle baby" despite being told her chances of conceiving naturally were extremely low.  Rebecca Moss, 28, from Wilberfoss, Yorkshire, was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma at 20 and later with Ewing sarcoma at 24, undergoing years of chemotherapy and radiotherapy.  Fearing a cancer relapse in 2024, she took a pregnancy test and was stunned to find she was 11 weeks along.  On February 20, she welcomed Rubylee May Moss, named in part after a late friend.  Now focusing on motherhood, Rebecca says her journey proves that hope should never be lost.
