Katie

Hi my name is Julia and I am helping to raise funds for my beautiful cousin Katie. Katie was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer in March 2020. Due to covid restrictions, delays and other medical conditions impacting her, she had a rough time and had to go through most of her chemo and surgery with minimal physical support from family and friends. We were all with her in spirit and at the end of the phone though! Katie also has a gorgeous daughter, Freya, who has had to watch her mum go through so much at such a young age. Katie was told she was in remission last December 2021. Katie has worked so hard to get in shape to have her reconstruction surgery which was scheduled today, 16/11/2022. Unfortunately, last Friday we were told Katie’s cancer is back and she is now stage 4. Katie’s prognosis is now 2 years. We are all devastated at this news and want to support Katie anyway we can. They are looking at any trials she may be able to take part in and and what chemo she can try. One of the biggest concerns for Katie right now is Freya, and her finances. As a family we will try our best to support her but if we can raise some money to take the pressure off her during this time, it would be so amazing! From Katie’s previous treatment, we know that the chemo makes her very unwell and usually involves a defib cart next to her bed! If she’s going to do anything, she does it in style! So working during treatment just won’t be possible for her. Katie and Freya also have a very small bucket list of memories that they would both like to try and achieve too. The biggest item being a weekend break to Disneyland Paris. So even if you can Donate £1, every penny will help! Thank you for reading.
