For weeks, doctors said the brave baby girl could only have “days to live”, but Ashley and Safiyya refused to give up hope.
They have since set up a fund in the tragic tot’s name.
Speaking to The Sun Ashley told us: “We wanted to set up the Azaylia Foundation because as she inspired us to be better people to want to help in this world.
“She also made us realise that we do have the power to affect so many people’s lives in a great and positive way.
“Azaylia is and will always be the most important person in our lives.
“Losing her made us realise that we don’t want other children to have to go through what she went through. We don’t want the parents to feel what we did.
“Childhood cancer is the number one killer of our children in the UK. These children are our future, and we need to help them.
“We want to honour our daughter and make sure her passing isn’t in vain
