Have the bucket list snap to put on top of my coffin

and-a-half stone mark and even although she is a petite 4ft 9in tall, it is still far too light to be healthy. She is at risk of malnutrition so she will this week be fitted with a feeding tube up her nose.

She has begun to work her way through her “F*** It” bucket list.

She has already dyed her hair purple and had a radical haircut, had Graham’s initials tattooed on her neck and gone to her first music festival.

However, there are a few things to tick off and the top two on her list were having professional photographs of her and Graham taken before she is fitted with her feeding tube, and meeting her favourite band.

She has tickets to see Kasabian one last time in November. Liz said: “I just love them. Some of their songs really speak to me. I will have one of them, Goodbye Kiss, played at my funeral.”

She also hopes to spend a night at the Marine Highland Hotel in Troon, where she and Graham wed 21 years ago, and to go on a picnic at Edinburgh Zoo.

This week, we were able to make one of her final wishes come true with the help of hairdresser to the stars, Taylor Ferguson, and Jennifer Beattie of Violet Rose make-up artistry. Taylor Ferguson stylist Ian gave Liz hair a modern cut and colour before Jennifer pampered her with a bespoke make-up session ahead of the couple coming into the studio, where our snapper Paul Chappells took their photos.

Liz said: “It was a fabulous experience. We just can’t thank everyone enough for such a special day.

“I love my hair and make-up and can’t wait to see the photographs. I just wanted a proper photograph to leave for Graham and to put on top of my coffin at my funeral. Arranging the funeral was so hard. I didn’t realise it would be so expensive and because of my Fanconi anaemia, I was not been able to get life insurance when I was young.

“At the crematorium they asked if it was to be a single or double plot for the ashes. When I said it was single, I felt so alone. But Graham is still young and I hope he meets someone else.

“He would be a great dad. I am so sorry I wasn’t able to give him children because the chemotherapy before the bone marrow transplant took that chance away from me. If we had children, at least they would have been here to help him when I die.

“We have always done everything together and I worry what will happen to him when I’m no longer here.”

But although her future is bleak, she still retains a sense of humour.

Liz said: “Graham and one of my doctors are big Game of Thrones fans and they were talking about what might happen in the new series in 2019. I just said, ‘Hey, show a bit of compassion!’

“I am determined to enjoy the last few months I have left and I won’t be giving in. If you do that you are on a downward road.”
