Mum of three dies just nine days after tragic diagnosis as heartbroken pals say ‘she didn’t even get a chance to fight’

A MUM of three died just nine days after she was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer.

Elizabeth Kelly, 39, "didn't get a chance to fight" as she succumbed so quickly, heartbroken friends said.

She leaves behind her husband AJ and their children, Sienna, seven, and five-year-old twins Scarlett and Fletcher.

The mum, from Melbourne, Australia, was described as “beautiful, healthy and happy” until just a month ago.

She first started experiencing symptoms 16 days before her death on December 15.

Elizabeth then went to the doctor on December 6 thinking she had kidney stones.

It quickly became apparent she was suffering from something much worse, .

She had skin cancer which had spread to her kidneys, lungs, breast, spine, lymphatic system and brain.

She started a course of treatment hoping for a Christmas "miracle", friends said.

But just four days later she was rushed to hospital with "what felt like a migraine".

A tumour in her brain was bleeding and she died soon after.

Family friend Russell Spear started a  page to help support her grieving family.

He wrote: “Words can’t describe the impact of the loss of such an incredible woman.

“Grief isn’t a strong enough word for what we feel, but we grieve for the loss of a daughter, a wife, a mum and a friend and for those three little kids who will now have their mum only in their memories, hearts and when they see the stars in the sky.
