Story

Help Us Give Olivia the happiness She Deserves

Our beautiful six-year-old granddaughter and daughter, Olivia, has been fighting medulloblastoma, a rare and aggressive childhood brain cancer, since last year.

She’s been through major brain surgery, full brain and spine radiotherapy, and months of chemotherapy — all with the bravery and spirit only a child can show. For a while, she danced, laughed, and began to feel like herself again. But a few weeks ago, we were told the words no family should ever have to hear: Olivia’s cancer has returned.

The relapse has spread to several areas of her brain. Her doctors have said that standard treatments can no longer cure her, and that time is now very short.

We want to fill those days with as many happy memories as possible.

Every day with her matters.

We’re raising funds to help with:

Updated Treatment & Support Costs

Over the past weeks we have begun working with an integrative medical consultant to support Olivia alongside her current medical care. This includes a targeted nutrition and supplement protocol designed to help stabilise her immune system, reduce inflammation, and support her strength and comfort day-to-day.

These are not experimental drugs. They are widely-used medical grade supplements, therapeutic nutrition support and regular clinical review, but they are not funded by the NHS, so we have to cover these costs privately.

Integrative medical consultations & follow-up review

£120–£260 per session

Every 3–6 weeks

Supplement protocol (lactoferrin, maitake extract, magnesium bisglycinate, taurine, quercetin/bromelain, vitamin D emulsions, curcumin AKBA etc.)

£140–£360 per month depending on availability & dosing

Monthly

Required high-quality nutritional foods and blenderised feeds

£30–£70 per week

Weekly

• Memory-making experiences for Olivia and her brothers and sister — small days out, special moments, and things that bring her joy.

Alongside existing travel, equipment and everyday care costs, the integrative support alone is currently around £350–£600 per month, and will vary depending on Olivia’s blood results and tolerance.

This support is helping Olivia stay comfortable, nourished, more settled in herself, and able to enjoy time, play and everyday moments. We are doing everything possible to keep her strong, supported and surrounded by love, and any help toward these ongoing costs is genuinely appreciated.

Thank you for being here with us.

We want Olivia’s remaining time to be filled with love, laughter, and dignity, not hospital walls and financial stress.

If you’re able to help, in any amount, please know that every donation truly makes a difference — not just for Olivia, but for her whole family trying to hold her world together.

Thank you for reading, for caring, and for keeping Olivia in your hearts. 💜

With love and gratitude,

Holly & Amanda (Olivia’s mum and nan)
