⭐️ UPDATED: Help Selina (Cheetah) Fight Cancer ⭐️

Donation protected

UPDATE 29 MAY. Dear friends and supporters,

We wanted to provide you with an update on Selina's journey as she fights against cancer. She recently underwent her first round of chemotherapy, and we are proud to report that she handled it with incredible strength and resilience, truly showcasing her inner Shero.

As with any medical treatment, Selina has experienced some side effects. She has been feeling extremely fatigued, making it challenging for her to carry out most daily activities.

Additionally, her sense of taste has been altered, everything tasting like salt, which has made it difficult for her to enjoy meals.

Furthermore, Selina can only stay awake for about 30 minutes at a time, making it essential for her to rest and conserve her energy.

We want to express our deepest gratitude to all of you for your unwavering support and generosity. The financial burden of cancer treatment is overwhelming, but your donations have made a significant impact on Selina's journey. Your contributions have helped cover medical expenses and provided much-needed relief during this challenging time.

Looking ahead, Selina will soon face the inevitable loss of her gorgeous long hair. However, we have taken steps to ensure her comfort and confidence by ordering stylish headwear that will help her embrace her new look with grace and elegance.

Once again, thank you for standing by Selina's side and for being a source of strength and encouragement. Your continued support means the world to her and our entire family. Together, we are making a difference and giving Selina the hope and courage she needs to conquer this LMS cancer beast. Warmest regards,

Dean, Lucinda, Claudia & Georgia

UPDATE 17 MAY - Support Selina's Leiomyosarcoma Journey -  cancer sux! 

Dear Friends and Community,

I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out today to share an update on our dear friend Selina, who has been facing some challenging times recently.

Selina has spent the past fortnight undergoing further testing, which has led to the development of a treatment plan that is set to begin next week.

On Monday, Selina will undergo surgery to have a portacath inserted into her chest. This portacath will serve as a vital access point for the chemotherapy treatment that will start on Thursday.

The chemotherapy drug, doxorubicin, is known for its strength and effectiveness in combating the illness Selina is facing.

During this journey, Selina will face some significant challenges. As a result of the treatment, she will be unable to attend events with large amounts of people, as her immune system will be compromised, making her highly susceptible to infections.

Furthermore, within the next 2 to 3 weeks, Selina will begin to experience hair loss, which can be emotionally and physically difficult to cope with. It is during these times of adversity that the support and generosity of our community truly shine.

Your ongoing support and acts of kindness have been incredibly comforting for Selina.

However, we recognise that the journey ahead will require additional resources to ensure Selina's well-being and peace of mind. The funds raised will be utilised to cover medical and living expenses, and any additional support services that may be required throughout her journey.

Every donation, no matter the size, will make a significant impact and provide Selina with the peace of mind she needs to focus on her recovery.

Selina has been advised she is unable to work now and into the future. 

Thank you for your unwavering support and generosity. Let us rally together and be the support system that Selina deserves.

 With heartfelt gratitude,

 Selina’s Family



Dear friends, family, and supporters,

We wanted to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude for your incredible support and generosity during Selina's battle against this rare cancer, Leiomyosarcoma.

Your donations have been instrumental in providing her with the necessary resources and treatments to fight this beast.

Selina visited the medical oncologist, and the next step in her journey is a lung biopsy scheduled for next Thursday. This biopsy will provide crucial information that will guide us in determining the most effective treatment for her condition. It is likely that she will undergo either chemotherapy or participate in an immunotherapy trial, and these decisions will be made in the coming two weeks. We anticipate that the first phase of her treatment, consisting of a series of three-month treatments, will commence within the next two to three weeks.

Your continued support through donations is greatly appreciated.  

Above all, our priority is Selina's health,

both physically and psychologically. We are fully committed to ensuring that she receives the best care possible and that she feels supported every step of the way.

Once again, we extend our heartfelt gratitude for standing by Selina's side and offering your unwavering support. Together, we will continue to fight this battle and provide her with the strength and resources she needs.

With sincere appreciation,
Dean and Lucinda (Selina’s sister)

Every donation, no matter the amount, is incredibly appreciated.

Together, we can rally around Selina and provide her with the support she needs during this challenging time. Your generosity will not only ease her financial burden but also provide her with the hope and strength to overcome this battle.
