<div>Hi, my name is Rachel and I’m 41 years old.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I was diagnosed in December 2021 with a rare and aggressive form of breast cancer called Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC). I underwent six rounds of chemotherapy, during which I developed neutropenic sepsis. I also had minor surgery and several radiotherapy sessions. I was then in remission for around three years.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In February 2025, I began experiencing ocular migraines, which progressively worsened. In March 2025, I was diagnosed with secondary cancer, with the disease having spread to my brain.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At that point, one brain  met was found and I underwent surgery in May 2025 to remove it.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Unfortunately, the cancer continued to progress. After collapsing in November 2025, I was diagnosed with three further brain mets and underwent another brain surgery to remove them. Despite this, the disease has since progressed again.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I have also had multiple hospital admissions due to swelling in the brain (cerebral oedema), including a recent eight-day stay. I have been on and off steroids to manage this.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I am now on systematic treatment - weekly chemotherapy and immunotherapy sessions,  until the end of August / beginning of September, alongside regular hospital monitoring and specialist care.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Alongside my medical treatment, I am also supporting my body through a holistic approach, including nutrition, supplements, and integrative therapies, alongside hospital care.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every donation, no matter the size, will go towards supporting my ongoing treatment journey, travel to and from hospital appointments, possible accommodation when needed, complementary therapies, and high-quality supplements that are not always available on the NHS. It will also help support my strength, wellbeing, and day-to-day life during treatment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your kindness, generosity, and support mean more to me than I can ever fully express. Whether you are able to donate or simply share my story, I am deeply grateful. It truly makes a difference in helping me keep going.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
