A six-year-old girl diagnosed with cancer said she dreamt of following in the footsteps of the “kind and very polite” doctors who made her “feel better”.
Bellamy-Rose, who lives in Feltwell, Norfolk, was given the all-clear in November after being diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia in 2023.
Over two years she underwent seven intense chemotherapy treatments, lost her hair and had to be fed through a tube.
Bellamy-Rose is now thriving, according to her family, and recently got to be a doctor for the day at West Suffolk Hospital – a dream she told the BBC she hoped to turn into a reality when she was older.
“I liked the blood test parts more than the other parts because they give me a teddy, and I’ve also had two billion blood tests,” said Bellamy-Rose.
“I want to be a doctor because they were nice and kind and very polite and made me feel better. Yes, [they are my heroes], so, I want to work with them,” she added.
