She died of chemo, not cancer. [/quote] Bullshit. What would you have given her, apricot seeds, Hulda Clark's zapper, habaneros or some other pointless rubbish? She dies because the treatment was applied too late. End of. The amount of gullible and ignorant dickheads on this forum is frightening. [/quote] Then leave. [/quote]

An 11-year-old girl who was suspected of having an eating disorder has died after doctors discovered she was unwittingly battling brain cancer.
Abigail Lightbown had been diagnosed with stomach problems by a GP and given acid reflex medication after she suffered dramatic weight loss at the age of nine.
Her mother Bernie Lightbown, 34, and dad Gary, 44, would hear their daughter being sick each morning and feared she was deliberately making herself sick so she could look like 'stick thin celebrities.'
But seven months later, Abigail who lost four kilos was rushed to hospital for an MRI scan after fainting and a tumour was found in her brain.
She bravely battled for two years against her illness and despite losing her hair, wore a wig only twice and met TV star Antony Cotton who plays Sean Tulley in Coronation Street and footballers Jonny Evans and Darron Gibson.
