The dying girl is comforted by the rescue cat, who also helps the rest of her family heal

“I’ve heard it said that some animals are like angels. Before Liza met Kylie, I never truly knew what that meant. Kylie’s mother, Robin Myers. Kylie Myers, a charming young woman, was identified as having metastatic bone cancer when she was 12 years old.

The young girl bravely fought the cancer even though it hurt and she was exhausted. Kylie’s family was saddened to learn that the sickness had spread throughout her body on the last day of treatment, and they knew she wouldn’t be with them for long.

But in her final hours, the strong and independent girl found comfort in her pet kitten, Liza. Liza was rescued by her family from a neighbourhood rescue group. The kitten was tough to deliver, had messy fur, and one bad eye.

She connected with Liza and her beloved family before she crossed the rainbow bridge. Kylie’s final requests are for her father to help with the search for a paediatric cancer treatment and for her mother to take care of her cat.
