Help Emma Louise fight stage IV cancer
Donation protected
Dear Friends and Family,
We are reaching out with heavy hearts to share news about our beautiful, kind, and caring mum, Emma Louise Andrews. Just one year ago, our mum underwent six weeks of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and we felt so blessed when we received the all-clear six months ago. However, after sustaining fractures to her back and pelvis, scans revealed devastating news: the cancer has returned—this time at Stage IV with a prognosis of 1-2 years. It has metastasised to her lungs, liver, peritoneum, and lymph nodes.
Our mum is only 52 years old, and having battled cancer twice before with such courage, we are hoping to raise funds for a second opinion and to explore more treatment options privately that aren't available on the NHS. Our deepest wish is to give our mum the best chance at having more precious time with her children, grandchildren, and family.
Our mum wanted us to share these treatment options in hopes that anyone fighting a similar battle will see what possibilities are available.
