Story
My cousin Wendy was diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer almost 2 years ago now, she had major surgery for this followed by chemotherapy, after the first round she was told she was in remission but two weeks later she discovered new "lumps" around her collarbone and groin....the cancer had returned. Further chemotherapy was required, this time it was every week instead of every 2/3 weeks, it has been really hard going with all the usual side effects and pains of chemotherapy and frequents stays in hospital due to those horrible side effects. Unfortunately the chemotherapy has only slowed the process down and there is to be no further treatment of this kind. Mistletoe therapy is an alternative therapy for cancer and has shown good long term benefits for such patients, but like a lot of things in life it is not funded and the Mistletoe Therapy U.K. rely on donations and patients funding their own treatment, so I've decided to fund raise for Wendy's treatment in the hope that it will give her more time with her family and see her son Craig finish his apprenticeship, settled in life with someone and his own family. I would be most grateful if we can raise the funds in the hope that this will allow her to have that extra time....thank you for reading this any excess funds will be donated to Mistletoe Therapy U.K. Thank you

7 years agoIt is with a very heavy heart to let everyone know that Wendy passed away a few days ago. I’m going to leave the page for another week in the hope of some more donations in the hope that it goes to help someone else that is how Wendy would like it to be. Thanks to those of you who have donated already, can I ask everyone to share and donate please. Myself, Wendy’s Mum Irene, sister Karlyne, brothers Neil and Douglas thank you for your support. Sleep tight Wendy 💕💔💕

Hi folks I'm June and I'm Wendy's cousin. I'm a nurse and have been so for 37 yrs. I emigrated to New Zealand with my husband last year & this the best way I can help Wendy at the moment but when I'm back next year for 6-8 weeks I'll be there to help Wendy with fundraising etc.
