Brave Bethany Mizen, who lost an eye to cancer, was given a holiday of a lifetime thanks to a generous charity.

The four-year-old was whisked away by limousine for an all-expenses paid weekend to EuroDisney in Paris.

Bethany, of Coombes Grove, Rochford, had her left eye removed three years ago because of cancer and every three months has to go through the ordeal of having it checked out and cleaned in London.

The fun-filled trip was organised by Basildon-based Cushions, which arranges holidays for children suffering from cancer.

She was joined by her parents Mandy and Terry and seven-year-old brother Luke.

Terry, 41, said: "Words cannot describe what EuroDisney was like. Everything was laid on for us. It was brilliant."
