Story

PLEASE SELECT GIFT AID IF YOU ARE A TAX PAYER WHEN YOU DONATE AS THIS MEANS 5% IS NOT TAKEN OFF BY JUST GIVING AND ALSO IT'S AT NO COST TO YOU. THE GOVERNMENT PAY IT! WHAT'S TO LOSE!

On 29th June I was told that the breast cancer that I have been fighting with all my might since 2012 has spread to my lymph nodes, lungs, liver and bones which means that surgery is no option and all that is available to me is more chemotherapy which in truth, is just being given to buy me some time - and that's only if I'm lucky enough that my cancer even responds to it.

Talking of time, I will be lucky to survive a year! With two beautiful boys aged 5 and 7 years old to live for, I am desperate to save my life and god willing I may have a good fighting chance if I travel overseas to receive immunotherapy - a cutting edge cancer treatment that is available but at a price. 

With the clock ticking, I need your help fast to make this possible, so please, please, please make a donation on my Just Giving page, and tell your friends how much of a difference their contribution would also make to the lives of me and my family. It's a big price tag, but together we can get there! I will keep you updated on my progress on here and my Facebook page.

Words can not express how eternally grateful I would be.

Wish me luck, Julie x

The charity Yes to Life are administering these funds for me, and will make sure they are only paid out towards alternative and complimentary treatments or consultations, or costs associated with them. 

Any contributions made are greatly appreciated. If you are a UK tax payer please select the option to add Gift Aid. This is at no extra cost to you and means that I will not pay any fees to Just Giving on your donation. The money reclaimed in Gift Aid will go on to help others through Yes to Life.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
