Jo's Fight For Life

Please help give our mum more tomorrows..... We've decided to create this go fund me page, although our mum is hesitant about asking for help.... but we don't have any other choice. Our Amazing & inspiring mum was first diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer in 2009. A rarer and hard to treat cancer, with limited treatment options. It came back again in 2012 and in March 2016 it came back for a 3rd time ... but now it was Stage 4. Mum has had 13 operations, 122 chemo sessions, over 1400 daily injections to prevent blood clots, sepsis and 2 lots of radiotherapy.  She has been on permanent treatment since March 2016, and now she is running out of treatment options on the NHS. With the help of a wonderful charity she managed to get second opinions in Harley Street, London. Amazingly they have said they can help her and have offered her Cyber Knife (stereotactic radiosurgery) treatment. This treatment would "aim to put the cancer to sleep" and it would mean that she can be treatment free for a period of time, hopefully a long time!  Sadly, this treatment is not available on the NHS, but she has the full support of her NHS oncologists at the Royal Marsden Hospital, and they agree that this treatment is the right treatment for her right now, and she won't have another opportunity to try Cyber Knife - She must grab this opportunity and she must do it now!!! Treatment will cost in the region of £40,000.  We are having to self fund this amazing life changing, life prolonging opportunity and  would be so very grateful for anything that you could contribute to help us give our mum more time with us.... Any amount you could contribute to help us in this really difficult time would be appreciated more than we could ever show. Love Danny & Mel
