A 'beautiful' young mum who was diagnosed with cancer just months after giving birth to her daughter has died.
Estelle Wignall was first diagnosed with ovarian cancer when she was 22 years old and had a tumour 'the size of a watermelon' removed. But in November 2020 - just months after doctors informed her there was 'no signs' of the cancer recurring - she discovered it had returned and spread to her lungs and pelvis.
At the time, the mum-of-one, from Hindley in Wigan, was told she may only have two to three years left to live. After six rounds of chemotherapy and two major surgeries failed to nurse her back to health, Estelle raised more than £30,000 through a Go Fund Me page to seek alternate treatments at various cancer centres in Mexico and Texas.
