A baby inherits a deadly cancer from her mother. The nine-month old baby received the cancer from her mother while she was in her womb. Addison Cox lives with her father in Phoenix, Arizona and was born with stage four melanoma. She has cancer in her brain, shoulder, lungs, liver, leg and the back of her tongue. Her father (James Cox) said "she is the happiest baby and shows no signs of pain and she is a fighter just like her mother." Her mother died earlier this month and thought that she beat the cancer and became pregnant with Addison. She thought the symptoms she was experiencing was from pregnancy until she had a seizure. Addison is the only ninth case of inheriting cancer from her mother. She is being treated with an experimental drug. Because the drug is experimental it's not covered by her insurance. Cox's co-workers have chipped in to help pay for her treatment.
