A mother is on a mission to raise awareness of a rare cancer after her daughter was misdiagnosed with constipation earlier this year and died a month later.

A British mother is on a mission to raise awareness of a rare cancer after her 3-year-old daughter was misdiagnosed with constipation earlier this year and died a month later, Essex Live reports.

At one point, doctors even accused the mother of not feeding her daughter properly, according to Essex Live. When Flanagan continued to press them about her worries, they allegedly dismissed her. "She had a huge tumor in her liver blocking her bowel," the mother said."When we were waiting to be transferred to [that hospital], we were shown an X-ray, and you could see the diseases and tumors. We were aware it was in her liver and we knew we were in a bad situation."
