Setting this up on behalf of my sister-in-law, Liz as she's unable to run a GoFundMe from Turkey. Please please contribute if you're able to.
Liz's words......
New year 2020 I travelled to Turkey where I had spent a lot of time since my retirement in 2017. My intention was to collect more contacts for my proposed new business website and return to York in March/April to start my business.
Unfortunately Covid arrived and I was stuck between two governments travel regulations. To cut a long story short I am still in Turkey due to circumstances and the aftermath of four bouts of COVID and complications, a bad accident and now a cancer diagnosis.
Following a bad fall down a flight of granite stairs I undertook extensive scans which resulted in a diagnosis of advanced Cancer of my bowel and colon but no medical insurance. To date I have undertaken a course of 28 chemotherapy and 28 Radiology, numerous blood transfusions and treatment for dehydration, low blood count, and various infections. It has resulted in every penny I had going to pay for treatment. My diagnosis cost me in excess of £6,000 alone. Travel and daily treatment has cost many thousands but I have had unbelievable care. I now need surgery urgently. In Turkey you must pay upfront. I don't have the time to wait on a UK list if I return to England. All I want is to be me again and to see my children and grandchildren. In recent time I have lost both my Mum and Sister and not being there at the end has destroyed me.
Please can you help me. I am desperate and the worry is not helping my condition. I am currently house bound due to pain.
I require in the region of £15,000 to complete my treatment and any assistance would be so appreciated.
Any excess money raised will be used to facilitate classes for women in Ayden, Turkey, on how to deal with hair loss, beauty tips etc to raise their spirits, which so many women in the UK benefit from, but there is nothing here.
Thank you for reading.
