Dublin teen who has been battling cancer for 12 years goes to US for treatment

Battling cancer for 12 years, young Dublin girl Robyn Smyth faces a new fight against the disease as she flies out to the US today.

The girl, 14, has suffered a relapse as the rare cancer has returned to her bone marrow, brain, jaw, back and pelvis. She became the first Irish person to undergo groundbreaking cancer treatment in New York last year.
