Funding Helene's Urgent Cancer Treatment

Donation protected
Helene requires surgery urgently to remove her bladder.  Cancer was diagnosed 2 years ago but her doctors believed that chemotherapy would be sufficient treatment.  It wasn't.  In May of this year during lockdown abnormal cells were again identified and Helene has had an agonising 6 months of delays in her cancer treatment.  She has been advised that the NHS do not have the capacity to operate on her until January 2021 due to the coronavirus.  Helene simply cannot wait that long.  Every doctor Helene has consulted say the same - 'time is of the essence'.    

Even finding a private hospital which has the capacity to treat her has proved very difficult.  But Helene has finally found one - The Royal Marsden in London.  She is scheduled to undergo surgery on 23 November 2020. 

Helene has required some persuading to launch this go fund me campaign.  But the treatment is very costly and if we, her friends and family  circulate this campaign as widely as we can together it is possible that we can help them shoulder this huge financial burden.

No one needs reminding what an inspiration our dear Helene is to so many people.  So please donate what you can and share this page with others.  Thank you so much.
