Five years ago, Kayleigh Donnelly was planning her own funeral... at the age of just 13.
One of the youngest people in the country to be diagnosed with ovarian cancer, survival seemed a faint hope – and motherhood an impossibility.
But today she is well and is seen cradling her own bundle of joy – gorgeous daughter Valentina, aged five months.
Kayleigh, still only 18, says: “It’s been absolutely amazing.
“I was told that I would never be able to conceive, but now I have a miracle baby against all the odds and the awful situation I went through.”
Gruel ling chemotherapy was thought to have left Kayleigh infertile. She feared her route to motherhood would be through adoption. Then, against all odds, she conceived Valentina.
