Kimberley, from Wigan, said she appeared better in the March, however Claire later started suffering a "bad back".
The mum visited her doctors who told her the heartbreaking news that the cancer had spread and Claire spent her last few weeks in hospice care.
Paying tribute to her mum, Kimberley told the ECHO : "Mum loved gardening, loved reading and loved summer.
"She was obsessed with summer and anything to do with the sun, she just loved it.
"Mum loved being at home, chilling out and watching TV with us. Cosy nights in she loved.
"She was loving, supportive and absolutely gorgeous, she was stunning.
"She a loving mum, partner, daughter, sister and auntie."
Claire was a personal assistant for Stephensons Solicitors, where she worked in the family department.
Kimberley said everyone "really loved her there, she was one of the best."
The teenager said "everyday is a struggle" since the death of her mum, however the family all share their memories and speak about her everyday.
Kimberley said: "It's been three months since she has passed but it's been harder than ever because you come across things in your day to day life.
"You want to go to your mum when she is not there and that's when it hits you and you start to realise.
"It is hard for all of us, but we still talk about her everyday."
Kimberley is now raising money for Wigan and Leigh Hospice in memory of Claire and as a thank you for their care.
Writing on her GoFundMe page, the 19-year-old said: "In memory of my gorgeous mum Claire who sadly lost her battle with cancer this June aged just 43.
