Weʼve raised £913 to help my friend receive the specialist Cancer treatment she needs in Germany
- Leeds, United Kingdom
- Funded on Friday, 30th December 2016
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
My lovely friend and fellow Nurse Rachel is a 35 year old mum of 2. She was diagnosed with an inoperable tumour in her pancreas and bile ducts and was offered only palliative treatment in the U.K. Fortunately her parents were able to fund specialist treatment in Germany and this worked, shrinking the tumours to nothing more than scar tissue.
Devastatingly, the cancer is back and spread to her lymph nodes and she needs to get back to Germany for further treatment to beat it once and for all!
She needs to raise a total of £120k and I, along with my twin sister Rachael and good friend Imogen really want to help!
WE PLEDGE TO EACH RUN 5K A DAY, EVERY DAY IN JANUARY 2017!
We would be so grateful if you could sponsor us- every penny helps! We have to make sure Rach gets the treatment she needs!
Thank you!
Gina, Rachael, and Imogen

7 years agoSo I'm a bit of a technophobe and this page has expired a day before the challenge!! Doh! So I'm going to claim the amazing £913 (minus the 5% JustGiving charge!) we've raised and send it over to Rach ASAP! Obviously we're going to continue raising money for Rach's treatment throughout the month of January so we'll have to set up a new page for this! Thanks again to everyone who has sponsored us, you're all amazing! If technology will allow, I'll post the link to the new page on this page when it's set up! Happy new year!!! Xxxxxx
