A 23-year-old woman has passed away after being told by doctors that she had a water infection.
When Georgia Goodier first went to the hospital, doctors suspected that she had a water infection. However, she rushed to the A&E when she felt an agonizing pain in her right-hand side, according to the Liverpool Echo.
After undergoing examinations, blood tests, and a biopsy on her liver, she was diagnosed with adenocarcinoma.
Georgia’s mother, 45-year-old Cheryl Goodier, said: “You look back and think we were just robbed of time with her. We definitely thought we had Christmas and we thought we had most of this year.
“She never had any health issues at all in her life. It’s surreal really. It doesn’t feel real still – that’s why we’re doing as much as we can to keep going.
“She was only 22 (when she was diagnosed). There’s no family history of any cancer, other than years and years ago but there’s no immediate family history of cancer.”
“It was just a huge shock because she was so fit and healthy. She ate well, she didn’t drink much, she was very active at the gym all the time,” the grieving mother continued.
Georgia underwent six rounds of chemo but suffered septic infections in her bile duct.
She passed away four days after she returned home on October 1 last year.
Her best friend Cheryl described her as a ‘family person’ who was ‘loved by so many people.’
“She was just amazing. She was caring and very thoughtful. She was loved by so many people. She lived at home still, she loved to be around her family and friends,” she said.
Cheryl continued: “She was a family person – she’s got a sister and two brothers and a cockapoo who she adored.
“She’d been with her boyfriend Jack for four years. She loved to travel, her and Jack had been to many places – Dubai was her favourite.
“It’s just not the same [at home], it’s quiet. She was a bundle of love and laughter.”
