Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I was officially diagnosed with cancer when I was 37 weeks pregnant, the following week I was induced and my beautiful daughter arrived into the world. Being diagnosed with Cancer can feel a very lonely place, particularly when you are diagnosed in the circumstances I was. The possibilities of being treated during and after pregnancy are surprising, but neither of which I was sure of. A month after giving birth I was introduced to Mummy's Star, which is a charity dedicated to support Mother's who have been diagnosed either through their pregnancy, or post 12 months. Through the support of this wonderful organisation, I have been connected to mothers who can identify with what I am experiencing, the comfort of this can not be expressed in words. This is just a small part of what Mummy's Star offers so please help our quest to support this charity, if only to take the time to learn about what they can offer. 

Thank you
Jo & Sean
