Azaylia Cain

[LetsGoChamp]

I can’t stop thinking about this poor little girl. My heart hurts for her family. I know she’s not the only child fighting a life threatening illness but she’s all I’ve thought about today.

Sorry if this post upsets anybody that is familiar with this little girl.

I have been following Ashley and Safiyya for a while and the story is so sad, she is so little

They have raised an unbelievable amount of money in a day though! Hopefully they will be able to get her abroad for the treatment she needs.

Yes I’m amazed and so thankful they’ve got the initial funds and I desperately hope the treatment works. Every time I’ve looked at my DS today I’ve felt so lucky.

Her poor parents must be so scared.

I'm so thrilled they raised the money they need in less than 24 hours! Fingers crossed she gets the treatment she needs and it's successful! I don't know how they find the strength but then again i understand there's no alternative! I refreshed the go fund me page hourly till it reached the target!!

@ivfbabymomma1 me too! I donated what we had spare until payday so we’re living off beans on toast for a few days but so worth it to help just a tiny bit. Crossing everything for them.

@LetsGoChamp bless you, what a lovely thing to do! I donated a small amount because that's all I could manage but they have definitely proven every little helps! I hope more babies get the same help through fund raising! I think Ashley is doing a bike ride or something to raise more!

I only heard about it today, but I see they’ve raised a huge amount which is incredible! I hope they manage to get her the treatment she needs. A friend’s little one was diagnosed around the same age and is now a strapping 10 year old! Her 2 year elder sister donated marrow!

Same here OP. Everytime I see a post from them or even just think about her through the day I just cant stop myself from crying my eyes out. It breaks my heart to imagine what they are going through. I donated what I could and couldn't stop checking the page every few minutes to see if they reached their target. So glad they did raise it, but it really winds me up that money is more important than saving a life, particularly the life of a baby. I cant stop thinking that if I was in a similar position, one of my twins would die because we wouldn't be able to raise nowhere near that amount, and it's so sad when you have people like Jeff Bezos, Elon musk etc who have billions an billions, far more than they would ever need in their lifetime and yet people, babies are potentially dying due to the cost of treatment.

I'm so glad they will be able to go to Singapore and praying so hard that the treatment is successful

also wanted to add how amazing it is the amount of people who became donors in Azaylias name (myself and my DP included) and how many potential lives will be saved because of it

I have followed ashley and safiyya about azaylia. That poor baby has fought against the odds every time yet it just seems to get worse. I cannot imagine the pain and desperation her parents are feeling. Azaylia is still smiling despite all she is going through, life can be so cruel. Me and my sister have cried at this poor little girls journey and we kept refreshing the page, we donated what we could. We were so happy when it reached the target and now its way over. They have also said any leftover money will be used to help other children needing treatment.

I hope so badly this treatment works.

i feel quite humbled reading your post. I also donated but the fact you’ve done so despite being stretched financially is awesome. The world feels like a slightly better place.
She’s such a little cracker of a girl, it’s hard to believe she’s fighting such a terrible disease.

Thanks everyone, I feel a bit more sane to know I’m not alone in feeling really connected to this story.

So lovely to hear of other people who have shared or donated where they could. @fassbendersmistress the way I see it is, in order of importance a few days without luxuries is nothing compared to a forever without your child.

@MrsDSalvatore I completely agree RE the wealth divide but understand it’s such a complex situation. I’ve also signed up but I still haven’t received my pack - they have emailed to say it’ll be on it’s way soon.

@Emmelina I’m so glad she’s well now. Hopefully like PP said, the money might also help other children in the same situation. I’m hoping it works for them all.

I can't stop thinking about this beautiful baby girl. Praying for a miracle for you little lion

I've also been following their journey and it's broken my heart seeing what that poor little girl has been through, and still with a smile on her face.

Ive noticed they haven't posted anything for a few days which is worrying 😢

Yes, I have noticed they have both been very quiet for the last few days on Instagram, usually they post a lot. I really hope that they are just very busy getting things sorted for the next phase.

I really hope so too.

Yeah I’ve noticed that too. I’m honestly hoping it’s because they’re on their way to Singapore and getting everything sorted other than something else. Fingers crossed for them. X

There is an update on Instagram x

Just seen the update. Absolutely heartbroken for them

Can't imagine their pain. I am heartbroken for them all, I wish the time they have left together is as joyous as it can be. Beautiful little baby lion x

I’ve been following her mum for a while and I’ve just seen her very sad update. I can’t imagine how awful they are feeling.

I’ve just seen it. Sat with tears rolling down my face at their words and watching Ashley break down. I was so hoping their silence meant they were in Singapore. The world can be so so cruel. I’m heartbroken for them. I will be hugging my baby a little longer and a little tighter tomorrow.

I've just seen the update and I am truly devastated for them. It's so very cruel and unfair .

I watched the update whilst cuddling my 1year old very tightly to sleep. I've been in tears, so heartbreaking, very difficult to watch. I can't even imagine how they're feeling.

I feel like I should be doing something to help, so it’s probably so much worse for them knowing they can’t. I don’t even want to imagine it being my baby as it’s so hard, so to be living it must be their very own nightmare. I hope for a miracle.

My heart is broken for them, I can't even imagine what they're going through but their strength is amazing. My thoughts are with them and their baby girl, I'll be hugging mine a bit tighter tomorrow. Life can be so cruel.
