Sarah's family memories/wedding

Donation protected
Hi my name is Sarah, I am 33 years old and live with my partner of 10yrs and 3 gorgeous children Elsie-Mai 7yrs, Sid nearly 3yrs and Albert 10wks old. I am asking for your help to raise money for me and my family because 2yrs ago I was diagnosed with melanoma skin cancer,  just after having my 2nd child I had noticed that a mole on my ear had become larger and vey itchy and would bleed, so I went to the doctor who referred me to the right people! A biopsy was taken and it came back I had skin cancer and the worst type melanoma, because the mole was so big I had to have most of the top part of my ear cut off my lymph nodes were removed and tested and luckily I got the all clear nothing had spread anywhere!!! Forward 2yrs on I was in the later stages of pregnancy with my third child and was experiencing excruciating back pain they agreed to deliver him 3wks early because of the pain. Once I had him I thought the pain would stop but it just got worse and worse, no one could figure out why I was in so much pain, x-ray came back clear, blood tests came back clear! It wasn't until 6wks after having Albert a doctor suggested a CT scan, that's when we were given the results that I had stage 4 melanoma, my melanoma had spread to my brain, liver, lung and spine (bones) hence the pain I had been in the tumour had been eating into my spine. Straight away I was given an operation on my spine to build it back up using cement and rods and screws! I know my cancer is not curable but I have started treatment that will either slightly shrink the tumours or stop them getting bigger or spreading so hopefully I will be around for a little while yet. But because we don't know how long I have left we have decided to make the most of everything, which means making memories together as a family, taking the children on days out and holidays, my daughter is itching to go to Butlins! Me and my partner would also like to get married in March next year, so these are the things your much appreciated donations will go towards. Thank you for all donations given xxx
