Story
Vicki was diagnosed in May last year with Anaplastic large t cell lymphoma she was only 21 years old. It was devastating for all the family as she was always fit and well. Vicki underwent several types of chemotherapy and even volunteered for a trial drug to help combat this cruel disease. Unfortunately in Feb this year Vicki's doctors told her there was nothing more they could do for her and said she would only receive palliative care. She refused to give in and was given 5 radiotherapy treatments to give her a chance to be offered a place on a new trial in Manchester. Several weeks ago Vicki became too ill to remain at home and was admitted to hospital, where doctors drained both her lungs of fluid and gave her antibiotics to beat infections. Again the doctors told her and the family the outlook was bleak but Vicki still refused to be beaten, even after being diagnosed with a blood clot. Vicki has fought to get back home and is now receiving alternative therapy and a recent ct scan has shown promising signs of the cancer is reducing. Vicki has just celebrated her 23rd birthday, which is an accomplishment. To give her the best chance Vicki needs to continue with the alternative therapy, however this is costly. Hopefully, with your donations we will be able to continue with the alternative therapy and kick this disease into remission.

I know Vicki from school, and I've seen her journey over Facebook since she was diagnosed. It's heartbreaking to hear her struggles as she's a beautiful girl and I really hope you reach your target.
