Story
Please help Leasa and Mandy have the best day of their lives.
The last year has been a year of extreme emotions to say the least! From finding each other and developing a deep and profound love which they are going to seal with their wedding vows in September; to discovering a few weeks ago, that Mandy has a rare and aggressive form of cancer. Recent weeks have been tinged with shock, sadness and uncertainty.
Leasa and Mandy are very private and proud and after some gentle persuasion have given consent to create this page.
Their big day of celebration has unfortunately had to be down scaled due to Mandy's ill health. If friends, colleagues or family would like to donate to the cost of their special day, any donation would be greatly appreciated.
Let's help this beautiful couple create and enjoy a day so special that it will be etched in their hearts forever. Maybe offer a donation in lieu of a wedding gift. They are both so strong and courageous in the face of adversity and uncertainty, they really do deserve an amazing day without any additional stress and pressure.
Mandy is undergoing intensive treatment regimes which is taking its toll. Leasa is working as many hours as possible to support them both and also save for their wedding. Thank you for reading their story.
They understand that some people may be shocked to hear this news, but respectfully ask that messages and questions are kept to a minimum.
Bless you all.

7 years agoMandy and Leasa have had some exciting news over the weekend. They have been accepted by the charity "Gift of a Wedding" ! This wonderful charity help couples with a terminal or life shortening illness to have a fairy tale wedding. They will take over the reigns and organise a memorable day for them.
