Liz Hatton‚ a 17-year-old photo-artist from North Yorkshire passed away at home on nov-27th surrounded by her family members (including her mom Vicky her step-dad Aaron and little brother Mateo)

I want my siblings to know theres always a bright side you dont have to sit and be miserable
Her mom Vicky Robayna shared that even in her final days Liz kept making plans: the family celebrated x-mas early because time was short. Just weeks ago she held her own photo show but got more tired after that
During her bucket-list journey she took photos of:
- West End show performances
- Professional circus acts
- Royal Ballet dancers
- London Air Ambulance crews
- MTV Europe Music Awards red carpet
- Hotel doormen in fancy uniforms
Famous photographer Rankin praised her work saying she made really smart images and knew how to create art. The royal couple called her a talented young person whose strength touched their hearts - this meant a lot as the Princess of Wales went through cancer treatment herself this year
Her family now works on getting £100‚000 for research of the rare cancer type that has no special charity support in UK yet
