Story
Hi and welcome to my fundraising page.
I was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer in 2012 when I was 28 and my daughter 8 months old.
Treatment didn't go smoothly which ended in me being given a year to live in October 2012. I had lots of treatment, 5 surgeries, radiotherapy alongside 10 consecutive chemos and got through most of what the nhs had to offer quite quickly. Thankfully, I proved the prognosis wrong and stayed stable for FOUR years.
It's now started to grow rapidly again and is now in my lungs, bones and other remaining breast.
I have been told to expect a small amount of time left.
I have looked into treatment in Germany and after them calling me and explaining they could help but I would need a substantial amount of money before ANY treatment or even seeing them happens. So here I am, I'm 33 and not ready to die yet so please give what you can and share this as far wide as you can.
Thank you for reading.
