Julie’s BIG fight

Donation protected
As most of you know our dear friend Julie Musto has stage 4 breast cancer.  Julie was diagnosed back in August 2016.  The day she found out she had Cancer was the day her life changed forever, not to say it has all been negative.  Cancer is a word that must strike fear into anyone diagnosed with it.   She had hardly no time to come to terms with her diagnosis, before undergoing surgery to remove the breast tumour then a major operation to prevent her leg from breaking. In those early stages life was tough for Ju.  She was so vulnerable and yet so strong.  Julie has been so positive and strong throughout.
 
It was not only family and friends desperately worried about her that rallied around but also the NHS medical staff.  Companionship and support has been a great tonic for Julie. Many of you are there supporting her daily by messaging and calling.

Julie has endured surgery and chemotherapy 4 times, hormone therapy, radiotherapy and now she faces further therapy.  This is terrifying for many of us to get to grips with but Julie has shown what a trooper she is.  Her life depends on this treatment so she endures everything that is thrown at her everyday life.  She does not complain and just goes with it.

Thankfully, technology moves on and cancer is so much more survivable. Today, 3rd July 2018, Julie has been to see Professor Sharma a consultant regarding SIRT, (Selective internal radiotherapy) a complex radiotherapy treatment.  This therapy is very expensive and not available on the NHS.  £30,000 is what it’ll cost to get Julie that treatment.

For nearly two years now Julie and her family have travelled back and forth from Exeter, where Julie receives treatment.  This has been exhausting both mentally and financially.

Though many of us would love to accompany her to London where this treatment is available we won’t be able to.  Let’s support Julie through the next part of her treatment by helping to fund the treatment for her. The money raised will help her finance the treatment, travel and hospital stays.

 Julies life has changed forever, let’s help make that forever, longer.
