Keavagh Moran, six, took a tumble on the dancefloor which caused her knee to swell up
The parents of a six-year-old girl were left devastated after a fall at a friend's birthday party led to a devastating diagnosis.
The autoimmune disease causes issues with the joints and if left untreated, can lead to glaucoma and blindness. Leeanne continued: "At first she was quite accepting of injections, but then out of nowhere it became absolutely horrendous and it could take up to two hours. She would be running, hiding under beds, screaming, crying, hitting out - it was just horrible."
Leanne added: "She is a very active wee girl, so seeing her so unwell, it was hard. Keavagh lost a lot of weight and a lot of muscle but she has worked really hard on her physio exercises to build it back up again."
