Lucy White Cancer Treatment

Hi my name is Jo, I am doing this fundraiser on behalf of my best friend, Lucy. Lucy is the most beautiful and kindest soul and person I have ever known. She is always happy and smiling even though she is dying of cancer. She is 22, but she cannot work due to her mental and physical health. She was paralysed due to a nervous system disorder and by a lot of hard work, regained the ability to walk just shy of 3 years ago. Her bladder then went into failure followed by this last November/December she had a cardiac arrest where the Stage 3 Oropharyngeal cancer was found.

She should be the time where she is meant to be travelling and exploring the world however she cannot.

Lucy has already had 2 surgeries and 1 round of radiation but she now needs other cancer treatment types - quite desperately too. She wants to do this so she can continue to live the life she’s learnt to love, play with her dogs, watch her friends flourish and grow old. She knows that “growing old” may not be possible, but just because the odds may not be in her favour doesn’t mean she won’t go down without a fight.

Before Lucy can even consider having treatments she needs to make adjustments to her home to help her have as much independence and dignity as possible. However we all know how stretched for resources the councils and grant agencies are like.

It would be much appreciated if you could donate even a little to help Lucy.
