Family's heartbreaking farewell to girl, 6, who fought so hard against all odds

The family of ‘beautiful and loving’ Isabelle Grundy have paid a heartbreaking farewell to a little girl who fought so bravely against cancer in Royal Manchester Children's Hospital.

Isabelle passed away last Monday afternoon (September 12) at the age of just six-years-old. She had battled with a rare and aggressive form of cancer.

The youngster, from Thornton Cleveleys in Lancashire was diagnosed with stage 4 neuroblastoma, a type of childhood cancer, in the summer of 2021 after a lump was discovered in her stomach. The diagnosis, which has a 50 per cent survival rate, was followed by intensive treatment including chemotherapy and blood transplants, LancsLive reports.
