A little girl who dreamed of being a paramedic has died just weeks after being diagnosed with a brain tumour, leaving her family shattered. Evie-Leigh Cormack, 11, had been looking forward to starting secondary school when the devastating discovery was made.
But she suddenly began to suffer from headaches, sickness, double vision and loss of balance as she prepared to start life at Hartlepool's Dyke House Academy. After she was looked at by doctors, the family was given the heartbreaking news that she had a terminal malignant brain tumour. Known for her 'sass' Evie-Leigh bravely battled her condition, but sadly died this week in Newcastle's RVI Hospital, reports TeessideLive.
Mum Perri-Leigh Littler, 29, dad Matthew Cormack, 31, sister Lillie, 10, and four-year-old brother, Matthew, and the rest of her family and friends have been left devastated by her loss. Perri-Leigh and Matthew said thankfully their daughter, who loved shopping, cinema and caring for the family's five dogs, managed to go to her new school for an hour to spend time with her friends.
