Just so terrible.

Here's a link to her sisters run for cancer page on Facebook:

If anyone wants to get in contact with somewhere on he bucket list that's be great imo. I don't know her, but what a brave person.

I email'd Cadbury World and got a response saying that they are getting in contact with the family so it is possible and people do care

Positive thoughts and vibes for them all.

Wow, what an inspirational young girl!

I don't know how I'd cope if I was told I only had months to live - maybe you become more philosophical when you are in that situation, but the thought of death and leaving all my family and friends behind whilst I'm still young scares the bejesus out of me. I think I would find it hard to stay positive.

I hope she can tick off as many of those as possible. You know its dire when you're told your too sick to travel, so fingers crossed she can make the most of her time left. I feel really sorry for the family shes leaving behind, as they would obviously adore their daughter and sister.

That would be so hard for her family (and her), knowing that it's up to them to stay positive and keep her in a good environment despite what's going to happen. Brought a lump to my throat reading this, life just isn't fair.

I'll definitely look in to helping when I have a bit more free time. Incredibly sad

Am I the only who absolutely hates this term 'bucket list' ? Where did it come from? I never heard it the first 25 years of my life then suddenly the last couple of years its popping up everywhere, I can't go a day without seeing it somewhere.

A wild stab would be that it came from the movie, "The Bucket List". But yes, since then it's become somewhat of a buzzword (or buzz phrase).

s**t, she's the same age as me.

That's really terrible.

Don't know how i would cope with something like that happening to me, what a brave person, hope she knocks off all of them.

For a 15 year old she has an amazing attitude towards all this. What a star.

Cancer is an absolute prick of disease, nobody is safe.

Teared up a little. Go get 'em Alice

so now this story has gone international and this girl is going to get everything on her list, while thousands of others in her position from australia to USA and wherever will get nothing...

There are thousands and thousands of poor kids who face similar fates that wont get to experience anything near what this girl will experience, but it's a bit harsh to say she's getting treated better than others considering what she's going through.

Life's just unfair in general.

She asked for this did she? The girl made a blog for her mates, someone found it and a 15 year old girl who's dying from cancer now gets to do things with her family that they'll remeber forever. But no, this isn't good enough because others don't get the same chance?

Why should we all have internet then? Plenty of people don't. Let's give it up for equality!

Life isn't fair, is it.

to kick the bucket = die
so bucket list = list of things to do before kicking the bucket

Good movie from 2007 I'd assume either coined the phrase or popularised it.

Take That are meeting her this weekend.

 

[thurmanmunson]

Is she still alive?

 

[Paul Kersey]

Is she still alive?

According to her FB page, no she isn't. Rest in peace young lass and strength to your family and friends.
