Safiyya Vorajee has had a tattoo of her late daughter Azaylia Cain inked on the inside of her right arm in tribute.
She shared a video of her getting a portrait of Azaylia, who she shared with Ashley Cain, tattooed on the inside of her arm, overlaying the song Circle Of Life from the Lion King.
Safiyya told her followers: ‘My Hero, My Daughter, My Bestfriend. Azaylia I miss you so much. This tattoo means so much to me, always being able to see your beautiful face & smile that lights up the world.
‘This will keep reminding me I need to stay strong for you. When I look at you I see, strength, bravery, courageous, your are so beautiful a true inspiration.’
Revealing why she chose that particular image to immortalise, Safiyya explained: ‘I chose this picture as there is so much meaning behind it,
‘Azaylia had just woke up from general anaesthetic & this was her first reaction when she looked at me, absolutely melts my heart.’

It’s not the only tribute tattoo Safiyya has for the tot, as she and Ashley and other loved ones got her name, Azaylia Diamond Cain, tattooed on the inside of their wrists after she died.
Azaylia died in April at just eight months old after battling a rare and aggressive form of leukaemia.
The family had raised over £1.5million to fund lifesaving treatment in Singapore, but Azaylia’s condition tragically worsened before she was able to go.

Safiyya also posted pictures of herself cradling Azaylia and said: ‘You are my Angel my heartbeat my soul, RIP my precious baby, you will always be with me like a handprint on my heart.’
