It is common for cancer treatments to leave women infertile which is why baby Walter is a miracle
A woman who had life-threatening cancer gave birth to a baby miraculously after she underwent pioneering treatment, theBBC reported.
Sammy Gray, 26, was afraid that chemotherapy had left her infertile. However, she had her "miracle baby", little Walter, afterCAR-T cell therapy trained her body to fight cancer.
On February 23, Gray became one of the first women in the UK to give birth after such a treatment.
After her first daughter, Harper's birth in 2018, Gray was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer called non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, which develops in the lymphatic system.
Even though she underwent radiotherapy and chemotherapy, her cancer became aggressive and multiplied.
In 2019, doctors tried CAR-T cell therapy which had recently been approved for NHS in 2018.
It is common for cancer treatments to leave women infertile. Therefore, baby Walter is a miracle.
Gray said: "I wasn't petrified of dying but I was petrified of leaving Harper behind."
"The chemotherapy made me very ill so I couldn't look after my baby daughter, so Daley, my fiancé, had to be a full-time dad.
"I'm determined to make the most of every minute with Walter," she added.
Gray has been clear of cancer for the past year.
