Safiyya spoke to her followers in a video on Instagram after her daughter was rushed to hospital last night for a final blood transfusion.

She shared: "The support you guys have all given us is amazing, it's incredible.

"We did some more castings of her yesterday, we got the prints for some necklaces, of handprints and footprints. And I was worried because, what if I dropped one. So then the lady was just really good, and she did these prints so that I can get a tattoo. So I can always have her so close.

"So I decided to get the prints done so I can get a tattoo, of her little hands and her feet.

"This stuff is so hard and all so difficult. But I'm going to make sure every day is fun and playful and as happy for her.

"Guys just appreciate your loved ones, hold them tighter, because tomorrow is never promised for anyone. So enjoy every day."

On Saturday, Ashley, 30, and Safiyya had an expert come in to get casts of Azaylia's hands and feet done as "so many people (were) wanting one these castings".

Safiyya showed a woman mixing the mould in their kitchen on her Instagram stories and explained she was worried they would "run out of product" because so many people wanted one.

Just two days earlier, the couple were told the devastating news their eight-month-old daughter could have just days to live.

Then last night Ashley revealed his seriously ill daughter Azaylia had been rushed to hospital for a blood transfusion which could give her an extra few days with them and allow her to have a more peaceful death.

Ashley said he demanded the transfusion after Azaylia began to bleed from her nose.

Speaking on the car ride home from the hospital, Ashley said: "We rushed Azaylia in tonight on oxygen because she'd been bleeding out from the nose.

"Because of her blood cancer it means it eats away at the cells that help to clot the blood, so with the tumours, plus the lack of platelets in her body, that means she could bleed out from the inside and that's no way for Azaylia to go."

The tiny tot has been given "just days to live", with her parents taking her home in an ambulance so she can spend her final hours in comfort.
