My sister Katrina Shaw has been diagnosed with grade 3 aggressive, invasive breast cancer that has already spread to her lymph nodes at just the tender age of 31, she is facing the biggest battle of her life and needs emotional and financial support to face this terrible disease and help aid with her recovery such as wigs, stockings, hats, scarfs, travel, and the special shampoos and creams she has been advised to purchase. Or if we can raise enough, then maybe a little to help purchase her some pick me ups along the way through the hard times.

The hospital are attacking it fast and she starts chemotherapy this week, she is going to have 7 rounds of chemo each lasting 3 weeks and then will be having surgery after to have her breast and lymph nodes removed.

Prior to being diagnosed Katrina served in the Army for a number of years as a dog handler, and her husband still serves. Katrina currently works in a Pharmacy part time, however understandably she will not be able to continue this whilst undergoing her treatment.

Katrina and her husband have 2 young children aged 5 and 3.
