Brave little Zoe O'Mahoney of 'Zoe's Magic Wand' has died after a long battle with a "rare and aggressive brain tumour".
The four-year-old passed away in her parents' arms shortly after 2am in the early hours of Wednesday.
Zoe was described as being a "bright, beautiful and brave girl who loves reading books, singing and wearing pretty dresses", Dublin Live reports.
In July of last year, mum and dad Carmel and Alan and sister Holly received the devastating news that Zoe was sick, undergoing several surgeries since to remove the malignant brain tumour.
A GoFundMe was set up in August for her titled 'Zoe's Magic Wand' to help her family raise funds for Proton Therapy in Germany.
But, Zoe wasn't going to let the tumour beat her and left on her own terms as her parents put it - developing a chest infection that she sadly just could not fight off.
Her parents said they are heartbroken but know that their Zoe had had enough.
They announced the tragic news on the Zoe's Magic Wand page, thanking Crumlin children's Hospital for all their hard work also.
They said: "Our beautiful brave little Zoe passed away in our arms at 02:44 on Wednesday morning.
"She decided that she wasn't going to let a tumour beat her and she was leaving on her own terms.
"She developed a chest infection that neither she nor antibiotics could fight.
"Her passing was peaceful and dignified and she didn't suffer."
They continued: "Through the empathy and dedication of the combined staff of St John's and St Anne's wards in Crumlin Hospital, Zoe (and us) were treated with unfathomable kindness.
"They took over in the background and let us just be Mammy and Daddy.
"We are heartbroken beyond words but we know she had enough.
"We love you to the moon and back sweetheart and we'll miss you forever."
