Story
My big sister Sara was diagnosed last year with anaplastic oligodendroglioma stage 3 which is a rare type of brain cancer tumour, Sara is 29 years old with 3 children who she loves so very much their ages are 2years, 10 years and 11years old.
Sara has already undergone brain surgery but unfortunately they could not remove the whole tumour, the doctors told my sister her options which are the obvious treatments like radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Sara was told even with these treatments she will only have a couple more years of life left. My sister is a fighter and will not give up so easily! She has undergone radiotherapy treatment but has also done her own research and has begun alternate treatments, changed her diet to an organic raw diet, many variations of supplements which she takes throughout the day and as some of you may be aware to do this is very expensive and as it's alternative treatment there is no help from NHS. My family and I are trying hard to keep getting the alternative treatment she needs in order to have a fighting chance at seeing her kids grow up. So this is my plea...help me raise money to try and save my sisters life so she and her children can have many more memories to make together.
Any donation small or large will be a great help.

6 years agoNow a little update on sara... Sara is still determined to fight this and is trying to remain as positive as she can, though recently she has been experiencing more bad headaches and is tired a lot of the time and has been made aware that these can be signs of growth in the tumour. We are all still hopeful that the CBD treatment will help with this but at the moment there is no way of telling. Since the kids are off school for the summer she has been doing her best to do active things with them but can sometimes find this challenging.

6 years agoJust a little update, these are some of the suppliments that sara takes daily to help improve her immune system. There are a few missing from this picture but just to give you all an idea of what she has to take to try and stay as healthy as possible and to keep her immune system as strong as possible using all organic products.
