, something went wrong.
Paige, a 4-year-old girl from Australia used to be happy and healthy just before she was struck by a serious headache two months ago.
Tania Miller, Paige’s mom took her daughter to the emergency room, doctors told them that it was just a simple headache even though her face had started to drop.
Innez Stonnel, Paige’s aunt told Daily Mail Australia:
“She would scream in pain while she was playing,' 'We now know that was from the tumor.”
The family booked Paige for CT scan in a couple of months. However, she would need the appointment sooner.
Paige was struck by a terrible headache again just a few weeks later and her face dropped even more noticeably according to Innez.

Jacob Skarratt, Paige’s father rushed her back to the emergency room, where the pediatrician on call immediately sent them to CT scan the next day.
The scan result showed that Paige's had a tumor the size of a lemon. A few days later, she was taken to Lady Cilento Children’s Hospital in Brisbane for surgery.
Innez said “That was the day that changed our lives”
“They were unable to remove the whole mass and found out that she is terminal” Innez added.
Paige had started on chemotherapy treatment in the hope of prolonging her life but after the first night of treatment
Innez recounted, “Paige was vomiting and was really sick, they took her back to the hospital, where they were told that the tumor had grown back a little bigger than it was before, and she had fluid and blood on her brain.”

Innez then offered her help and started to plan a beautiful wedding at Paige’s hospital in just 24 hours, she also wanted to make Paige’s greatest dream come true, to be her parents’ flower girl.
Innez explained:
“Something that they had wanted to do for so long was get married, and they couldn't bear the thought of Paige not being there,” Innez explained.
“So I offered to help them and got started straight away!”
She asked the hospital permission, found a celebrant and picked up a wedding dress for Tania.
Others also helped the couple to make the wedding possible. A close friend of Innez’s sister made the cake and a mom from Paige’s kindergarten organized the music and decoration.
The entire wedding cost $1,000, but it was a magical night for the entire family that they would treasure forever.
Tania had done her hair makeup right next to Paige’s hospital bed, she was also very emotional as she put her daughter’s flower girl gold shoes.
