Mumma Bear's fight with brain cancer
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Erin, the daughter of a Mother who always put everyone before herself, always did everything herself and never needed help until now. She is currently in hospital and could use the help of family and friends.
Here's the story
My mum raised us 3 kids on her own and was so busy working to feed us, clothe us and keep a roof over our heads that she didn't have time to prioritise herself and her health. My youngest brother Connor who is highly autistic requires all of her care 24/7 which leaves her exhausted having headaches all the time.
She thought these headaches were a normal part of the mental load of being a mother but she started to become disorientated with blurred vision and slurred speech. 2 weeks ago we got told she has a tumour in her brain and they had to operate to remove part of it but cannot remove all of it, a biopsy confirmed it is Glioblastoma an aggressive brain cancer that is not curable and she's been given 2 years (median) to live
Now on top of this the real estate has given her notice to move within 3 months and she has used all her long service leave to get by whilst in hospital, she is unable to return to work and she is still having issues with her speech and memory.
This is a horrible time for her and i'm hoping family and friends can help take the stress away from our beautiful mum ❤️ any donation big or small will be appreciated so much
Thank you
