Stage-four brain cancer patient Alleya Rumaeisyah Abdullah's wish is to meet the queen, Raja Permaisuri Agong Tunku Hajah Azizah Aminah Maimunah Iskandariah.

The 13-year-old from Port Klang, who was diagnosed with the disease when she was just three, was recently on a three-day vacation in Langkawi with her family, under a programme organised by Persatuan Ziarah Sahabat Kanser (PZSK) and Kem Isi Rimba.

Visiting Langkawi was another wish of hers.
