Facebook Photo Helps Nurse Spot 2-Year Old's Eye Cancer

[Bubba]

Two-and-a-half year old Grace Freeman was recently diagnosed with a retinoblastoma -- a cancer of the eye that, if left untreated, could've easily killed her. Luckily, Grace's doctors detected the cancer before it could spread to other parts of her small body, and saved her life.

But if it weren't for Facebook (and one, very vigilant friend), things could've been tragically different.

What are the odds of that ever happening again?

My wife actually noticed the same white reflux in a friend's daughters eye in a pic that we took of her, she told her to take her to the eye doctor...turned out it was just the way the camera was...but you never know:neutral:
