A MUM who lost her newborn baby and battled cancer twice has tragically died.

Danielle Currie, 28, sadly passed away on May 11 - just weeks after being told she could leave Glasgow's Beatson Oncology Centre.

The mum, from Drumchapel, had undergone a successful stem cell transplant in February following a second diagnosis of Hodgkins Lymphoma.

Danielle left the Beatson, where she had been treated after the op, on March 23 - but was rushed to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital with a high temperature two weeks later.

She tragically passed away on May 11, with her loved ones revealing her death certificate states the cause of death as inflammation of the lungs and pneumonitis

A fundraising page has been set up in her name to raise money for her fiance, Derrick McNaught, 28.

Danielle gave birth to twins Grahame and Sofia McNaught in December 2017, who arrived after just 24 weeks and weighed just one pound, six ounces and one pound, two ounces, respectively.

Heartbreakingly, Grahame died at only 11 days old - but miracle sister Sofia battled against a chronic lung condition to survive.

Home carer Danielle was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphona in October 2018, just weeks after her daughter had been allowed to leave hospital.

Cousin Leanne Dawson told the Daily Record: "Danielle and Derrick went through such a hard time after the twins were born. Then came the cancer diagnosis.

"Danielle never said 'why me?' She just got on with it and kept smiling."

"She lost her hair with chemotherapy and often took infections which is horrible, especially for someone of her age.

"She was a new mum and couldn't look after her baby. But she carried on and stayed positive."

Danielle went into remission in March 2019 but the cancer returned a few months later in July.

Leanne, 38, said: "Danielle never said 'why me?' She just got on with it and kept smiling.

"Planning her wedding to Derrick and getting better for Sofia was a good focus for her.

"If anything, she always worried about everyone else, which just summed her up."

After getting the all clear for a second time in March, Danielle headed home the shield with at-risk daughter Sofia.

But in April, she was admitted to hospital and sadly passed away in May.

Leanne, from West Lothian, said: "Her lungs were damaged and had to be drained of liquid, which doctors said could have been a result of the stem cell transplant. It was a horrible time."

Heartbroken Derrick, who cannot work due to his Epilepsy, is now caring for Sofia. But the tot was among the many loved ones who couldn't attend Danielle's funeral this week due to lockdown restrictions.
