Help Cheryl's Fight against cancer
Donation protected
This year has been a rough year for our family and the beginning of this month we received devastating news.
My eldest sister Cheryl who will be 40 this month has been diagnosed with Cancer for the second time. This time it has been much harder to accept as the doctors have told us that they believe it to be incurable and she only has been given a matter of months to live.
Cheryl has many reasons to fight these odds. She has 3 beautiful children two of which are minors and a boyfriend who are supporting her and a family that wants to see her beat this. Cheryl has great ambitions to make beautiful masterpieces out of wood, make her mark on this world and see her children grow up and graduate and get married. She has four sisters all of which are younger then her. She has a new niece due to see this world in November who she would like to meet.
We are looking to get any support from friends and family and others willing to help.
Cheryl is already quite sick and can barely work. Some times she is unable to complete a shift of work without extensive pain and having to rest. We are looking to get any help we can to help keep her and her children looked after while she undergoes treatment. We want to see her spend as much time as she can with her family without worrying about her finances. She is already on a limited budget and needs to focus on fighting this rather then worrying about how she will make ends meet financially and feed herself and her family.
The other reason we are looking for help is because she does not have the coverage or money to pay for burial or funeral costs if she ends up losing the battle she is fighting. Her family can help where possible but they also have family's and cannot afford as much as it will cost for these expenses.
