Blog about 3-year-old Down's Syndrome girl's battle with leukemia gets 11,000 followers, Maidstone, Kent, Britain - 20 Feb 2014

Leukemia Tot's Blog Attracts Thousands Of Wellwishers
Known to her legions of fans as Princess Winnie, this British toddler is melting hearts around the globe.
More than 11,000 people a day follow her story after her mother Nichola started blogging about the three-year- old's battle against leukemia.
