Help support Julia and her baby

I am fundraising for my sister Julia and her baby boy. Julia is 6 months pregnant with her first baby and after ending up at the A&E with severe pains and going through several tests she was diagnosed with cervical cancer on December 1st 2021. All our lives were turned upside down on that day. What was a time of excitement, joy and anticipation for the new arrival became a fight for saving my sister's and her baby's lives. Being diagnosed with cancer is a terrible experience for anyone but having to go through this while being pregnant is a double blow, as two lives depend on the outcome of the treatment.

 

Julia is going through rounds of chemotherapy at the moment and the baby is doing well. It is a very challenging and painful process, both physically and mentally and I am amazed at how brave and strong my little sister remains during this rocky journey. She is always smiling and is experimenting with colourful wigs :) She is a true inspiration to me and all our friends and family and I am extremely proud of her!

 

Depending on her and baby boy's condition and how well she responds to the treatment she will have a surgery to deliver her baby 2 months early and have a full hysterectomy at the same time. Her doctors said that her baby will be kept at NICU and she might need to have more chemo and radiotherapy after that.

 

I understand that my sister's and her baby's journey to full recovery will be challenging and I am asking you to help support her during this difficult time. Julia is a self-employed beauty therapist and the funds I am raising will go towards supporting her while she is unable to work during the treatment and recovery. Please pray for Julia and her baby boy and share this page.

 

Thank you from the bottom of my heart XX
