Milo's mum demanded for tests to be done before he was given a terminal diagnosis
A mum was told her son won’t live past the age of ten after she noticed something wasn't right. Milo Hibbert, five, from Wallasey , was diagnosed with metachromatic leukodystrophy in August this year after his speech and balance rapidly deteriorated.
