Tragic Mum Dies From Cancer After Doctors Failed To Spot It For TWO YEARS

A young mum has tragically died days after she was diagnosed with stomach cancer - that doctors failed to spot for two years.

Crystal Chambers, 32, from West Bromwich, West Mids, was told she had the terminal disease and was given 48 hours to live, despite having visited her GP and hospital several times.

The single mum-of-two was given the devastating news that she only had 48 hours to live and should say goodbye to her seven-year-old-son and two-year-old daughter.

However, brave Crystal managed to fight on for another three weeks to spend precious time with her family before she finally died in her mother Sandra’s arms earlier this month.

Her cancer had spread to her lung and bones.

Now her devastated friends and family have set up a fundraising page to raise money in her memory to help build an extension on Sandra’s two-bedroom home to accommodate her two grandchildren.

Friend Marcella Conner, who set up the page, said: “Crystal was utterly devoted to her two children.

"They were her whole world, everything she did was for them and to show them how much their Mummy loved them.

"Crystal was very bubbly, softly spoken and kind-hearted. She would help anyone in need.

"It might sound like I’m talking about an angel.

"But if she is looking down on us now she would say sorry for what we are all going through, because that was the kind of selfless person she was.”

A staggering £4,000 has already been raised so far, while the page includes a moving video montage showing pictures of Crystal with her two young children.

A message on the site reads: "Crystal Chambers sadly passed away on Thursday 15th October 2015 at only 32 years old.

"She was fully diagnosed with only 48 hours to live. She leaves behind two beautiful children - a seven year old son and a little two year old girl.

"Crystal visited her local GP regularly for 2 years who failed to diagnose that she had stomach, lung and bone cancer until 3 weeks before her passing.”

Crystal’s family have also added a message to the fundraising page which adds: “If you or any of of your loved ones feel ill and not happy with the care or diagnosis that you receive, please challenge it until you feel that all medical investigations have taken place.”
