Original Toronto Star caption: Early detection and treatment saved the life of Luba Kalnins, 12, Now she can play happily with her pets, including a white mouse named Little Rat, at her home at Sharon near Newmarket, and attend school. But when she was 7, Mr. and Mrs. Arijs Kalnins had little hope their daughter would survive a kidney cancer. The Canadian Cancer Society emphasizes the need for early diagnosis. The society is currently campaigning for $1,362,450 in Toronto.
