'I went to my daughter’s prom after she died from rare form of bone cancer aged just 14'
I went to my daughter’s prom after she died from rare form of bone cancer aged just 14Sarah Griffiths, 43, runs a candle business and lives in Blackwood, South Wales, with husband Leighton. She has two sons, Evan, 14, and Zak, nine.
Daisy was always sporty, and by the age of 12 was into netball, athletics and cross-country running. But in June 2015 she began to have pains and spasms in her leg, so the GP sent her for a scan at Nevill Hall Hospital to investigate. When she started her treatment that August, we had to shave her hair as it began falling out. Knowing that the cancer was curable gave my husband Leighton and me the strength to stay positive for Daisy and the boys.
We decided to focus on making memories. Local charity Dreams & Wishes sent Daisy to Welsh national rugby matches as a VIP, and gave her an iPad so she could video call her pals during long hospital stays. In March 2017, friends and family organised a fund-raising ball called Daisy’s Dance. That night, I wrapped my arms around my little girl’s tiny frame and we danced together. I had a big smile on my face, but inside I was broken.Sarah and Daisy during her treatment aged 13.
