Mother's tribute to rare cancer daughter

  • 5 years ago
A devastated family has paid tribute to a popular 17-year-old who died from a rare form of incurable cancer. College student Saffron Pedroche fought bravely after being diagnosed with goblet cell carcinoid in September last year before succumbing to the condition last month. She went to see doctors after a build-up of fluid in her leg in August. Tests showed that cancer had spread throughout her body. She was told at the end of September she only just two weeks to live, but fought on until February.
