Shinade Appelman

Shinades Sarcoma Journey

Our very widely loved Shinade, mum to Mia-Rose age 15, and Connor age 7, has been battling an extremely rare Sarcoma cancer BRAF Genetic mutation that is both fast growing and aggressive. Since her diagnosis in December, 2022, Shinade has undergone open surgery to remove a 2.7kg cancerous tumour, that has sadly grown back, since her major operation inclusive of a heart bypass and kidney removal, Shinade has been told, traditional treatment methods aren’t available, but must undergo Radiation in order to slow the growth as she awaits to be apart of a global clinical trial.

To support Shinade and her family, we are raising funds to take the pressure off, whilst Shinade has returned to work intermittently the appointments, complexities of treatment and side effects and pain associated of the tumour makes ongoing regular work extremely challenging.

We know many people are wanting to show their support, but don’t know how, so we have set up this page to help raise funds for Shinades ongoing cancer treatment and income security.

If you can kindly help in anyway, it would be greatly appreciated.
