Just when you think you are finally sick of hearing Frozen's theme song Let It Go, this heart melting video might actually change your mind.

In June, 3-year-old Millie McColl was diagnosed with stage 4 neuroblastoma, and she is currently undergoing a series of chemotherapy sessions at the Glasgow's New Royal Hospital for Sick Children.

Just like any little girl in the world, Millie loves Frozen. After receiving a karaoke present, night shift nurses decided to cheer the little girl up by performing an impromptu sing-along to Elsa's Let It Go with a little razzle-dazzle of snow and sunglasses props as well as some groovy dance moves. The sweet little girl clearly enjoyed the show as she laughed, sang and played with the microphone.

Millie's mother Lynsey McColl has created a JustGiving page to raise funds for her daughter as they seek a form of treatment only found in the USA. In a statement, she wrote "Unfortunately the reality of this type and stage of cancer is that there is around an 80% chance the cancer will return and there is not yet a protocol of treatment for relapsed neuroblastoma in the UK. This is why we as Millie's family have decided to start fundraising now for further preventary treatment available only in the USA called the DFMO drug."

So far, the page has raised about 10% (£9,965) of the £100,000 target. "Each donation made is greatly appreciated as it takes us one step closer to giving our beautiful girl the bright future she so deserves."

Meanwhile, Lynsey wrote on the kid's official Facebook page Millie's Journey "Hope everyone has enjoyed Millie's sing-a-long with the nurses so far! So incredible! Thanks to everyone who's shared and given the nurses the recognition they deserve."

The video captioned "Millie is showing chemo won't bring her down" received over 12,000 likes and has been shared by almost 4,500 people.


So this didn't quite go as I had pictured in my head but we all had fun and as always Millie is showing chemo won't...
