Cancer-stricken girl’s dying wish for Zendaya video message as family bid to make dream come true

A cancer -stricken schoolgirl’s dying wish has been revealed by her family as they launch a desperate bid to make her dream come true.

Little Kiara Buonomo has been given just months to live after being diagnosed with brain cancer last year.

Now her devastated family want to fulfil her final wish to have Greatest Showman actress Zendaya record a special message for the terminally ill seven-year-old.

Yesterday Kiara’s father Aldo uploaded a video to Twitter showing his daughter sing along with the Disney Channel star to her favourite song Wonderful Life.

Tagging Zendaya in the tweet, he wrote: “[This] is trending over on FB as they try to get the singer of wonderful life from the film small foot to acknowledge little Kiara, as it’s her favourite song and has been on camera singing it, even back when she had grade III brain cancer, lets see if we can do it here.”

Little Kiara, who also has a nine-year-old sister Kayla and three-year-old brother Ajay, was diagnosed with brain cancer in January last year and despite undergoing a brain operation to clear away most of the cancer, doctors told her family there is nothing more they can do.

Last month we reported that Kiara’s family had been bombarded with disgusting messages by a sick troll.

Kara’s mother Natasha, 30, said the hate-filled messages were destroying her and her family.

She said: “It’s sickened us. We have enough to think about without the extra stress of this.”

We later reported that Rangers star Alfredo Morelos wrote a heartwarming letter to Kiara after hearing about her family being targeted by the vile online hate.

The Ibrox striker said: “I have heard you are an avid Rangers supporter and you have been going through a difficult time recently in hospital.

“On behalf of all the players and staff at Rangers Football Club, I would like to take this opportunity to send you our very best wishes and stay strong.”
