Speaking with the Birmingham Mai, 26-year-old Dani emotionally said: "I want people to know how important it is to have any mole or skin blemish they're concerned about checked-out.

"And don't be afraid to challenge doctors, don't be afraid to ask for a second opinion, and a third."

Doctors have given the mum-of-two just two months – at most.

“It upsets me because I won’t see my kids grow up."

“I won’t be there on that first day at school. I won’t be playing games with them at birthday parties.

“I want them to remember me, to be happy, to do well, to go to university. I want them to make me proud.”

Dr Roger Stedman, Medical Director at Sandwell and West Birmingham Hospitals NHS Trust , said: “We are extremely sorry to hear about Dani’s situation and wholeheartedly back her call for anyone who has concerns about a suspicious mole or skin blemish to seek advice at the earliest opportunity.

“As part of her antenatal care a rapid access referral was made in November for Dani to see a specialist at our skin centre in December and January, but unfortunately she failed to attend on both occasions and her GP was informed.”**
