Eye melanoma: Flashing light in mum's eye leads to cancer diagnosis

Danielle Clent Reporter from Western Leader

After a month of blurred vision and a continuous black and white light in her left eye, Leanna Bell decided to get it checked out.
Not realising the seriousness of it at first, she was shocked to discover it was a rare, cancerous tumour.
The 26-year-old mother of two from Massey was diagnosed with melanoma in her eye in December 2019.
Now she is getting ready to travel to Liverpool in the United Kingdom for a month to have treatment.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
