A GoFundMe page has also been set up for Fiona to help with the cost of her life-changing treatment.

Her sister Emma, who set up the page, said: "Hi my name's Emma and I’m starting this fundraiser to help my Sister Fiona, so in the recent weeks Fiona has been diagnosed with two forms of cancer, ( in the eye and also in the liver).

"Fiona’s treatments are in Dublin for the eye and she’s also been sent over to England for treatment on her liver which will consist of a few trips over and back to England for the treatment.

"Fiona is a proud single mam to her two beautiful boys Jake and Kyle.

"Fiona is a very kind hearted person and would do anything for anyone so by doing this for her I just want to try and take the pressure off for her, she’s worrying about hospital bills when she should be just focusing on her and her boys throughout all of this and by doing this it’s just to take a weight off for her.

"If ye can help in any way it would be really much appreciated and any small bit of help ye can give could go a long way to helping my sister get better for her boys

"Thanks so much."
