8-Year-Old Girl Is Breast Cancer Free After Having Double Mastectomy

For months, 8-year-old Chrissy Turner went to bed each night hoping the strange lump in her chest would just go away. The little girl was terrified to tell her parents, but finally, she managed to gather enough courage to confide in her mother. Her parents immediately took her to the doctor. A biopsy taken at Children's Hospital in Salt Lake City showed she had a rare form of breast cancer. Chrissy underwent a double mastectomy and now her family says that she is cancer free.
