Story

Hello everyone,

We wanted to ask you for your support in helping Kelly regain her health and continue being Mum to our 3 small children.

As some will know, Kelly received a shock diagnosis of stage 4 bowel cancer last August, aged only 38, after sudden onset of symptoms. Your kindness and generosity has enabled us to achieve so much for Kelly; after a 9 hour emergency surgery to resect the bowel, radical hysterectomy, 20l of fluids to combat sepsis and a 12 day stay in hospital, your support has allowed her to bounce back supported by Vit C IV, Ozone therapy, herbs, Naturopathy, Magic Oils!, Hyperbaric O2, Hydrogen therapy, and many other things - this has had an amazing effect and has slowed the existing growth.

We’re in a position where conventional treatment offered is palliative (as told by our oncologist) and so are having to think creatively about how to navigate through this to a place that’s less scary.

Kelly is an amazing, brave and strong soul, and is resolute that it’s not her time to leave us all (and I so so so agree), but unfortunately we’re still on an uphill climb.

——

We’ve been having regular CT and PET scans and have had results back from the most recent one (4 weeks ago) and it shows another tumour and further growth. This may or may not have been present since soon after the op last year, but it’s news that shows a slightly more complicated picture.

Kelly has been made aware of clinics in Mexico and Germany that have amazing results for people with late stage cancer, and have great records showing a complete change in the course of people's futures. We’re in discussion with their doctors as to how and what programme would benefit Kelly.

We like to ask you all whether you could help us once more and get Kelly abroad for treatment.

Your generosity is sincerely felt.

Kelly & Matt


p.s. Since fundraising began, we have used some funds (£11K) for a week's treatment in Germany. To achieve this is an amazing thing and the time was so beneficial for Kelly. We are looking to repeat the week asap.
