Story

My wonderful friend Katherine was diagnosed with bowel cancer and secondary liver cancer at just 36 years old. She's had radiotherapy and chemotherapy but it hasn't been as succesful as we hoped, although thankfully the cancer hasn't spread further.

There is evidence that a drug called Avastin could help but it is not deemed cost effective enough to be fully funded through the NHS currently.

Katherine needs a minimum of 6 sessions of this drug (possibly as many as 12) and at £1500 a session, needs to raise some serius funds!

Kate was married a little over 2 years at diagnosis, her and her fab husband have plans for how to spend both their young and older years together. Please let's do our best to help them make this happen.

Update: you fabulous people managed to raise the £9,000 for Kate's first 12 weeks of treatment (6 rounds) in the first few hours of going live! This means she can go ahead straight away!!! I have therefore changed the target to £18,000 to cover her second lot of 6-sessions which she'll likely need after that.

Kate has been blown away by your generosity and kind messages. Thank you so much to all of you xxxx
