Hartlepool mam gets final dream holiday to Disneyland
38-year-old Steffi Timms has been given months to live after her bowel cancer became terminal.
A Hartlepool mam who's been given just months to live says being donated a dream holiday has made her final wish come true.
German-born Steffi Timms has terminal bowel cancer, and said she would like one last family holiday with her two daughters and husband Steve.
Steve set up a fundraising page and has raised over ÂŁ3000 in a fortnight, smashing their initial target.
The family have now booked to visit Disneyland Paris in April.
Steffi said: "I cry because I'm normally the giver.
"I don't put myself first, I never ever have done and I still don't.
"So all this attention is really weird for me but I'm over the moon.
"It's making me stronger.
"We're going to be a normal family for a change again which is really nice.
"Going on a family holiday to make memories for my daughters is unbelievable, it's amazing."
Her husband Steve said: "I wasn't expecting it.
"In the first 24 hours I raised over ÂŁ1000.
"It's just amazing to get support from people all over the world, Ireland and America.
"Whoever you are, thank you."

Any extra money raised will be put towards her funeral arrangements.
