Jessica Whelan's plight came to the public attention when her father
Andy published a distressing black and white image showing the little
girl grimacing in pain while battling her terminal condition (left). The
four-year-old (right), from Oswaldtwistle, Lancashire, was diagnosed
with stage four neuroblastoma in September last year. She tragically
passed away at 7am today, and her heartbroken
father took to Facebook to
announce the devastating news (centre) and said: 'No longer does she
suffer, no longer does she feel the pain of the physical constraints of
her body. Now my princess has grown her angel wings and has gone up to
play with her friends and loved ones. She will now watch down over her
little brother and ourselves until one day we are reunited again.'
