neck and head cancer treatment

Donation protected

Hi my name is Kye and I am trying to raise funds to assist with my battle with my Cancer treatment

A little bit about my story - in Aug 2024 I had COVID. After testing negative 2 weeks later I noticed that I still had an insanely sore throat, ear constantly aching and a headache that I could not shake and a lump in the side of my neck that continuously grew.

After going to my GP, he ordered an urgent ultrasound of neck which showed a mass 20mmx20x20.. after a urgent CT scan 2 days later it showed that the lump in my lymph nodes was was most likely cancerous...

My worst fear was confirmed by the ENT specialist that I have stage 2 SCC tonsillar cancer which has spread to my lymph nodes in my neck

I am about to start radiation therapy daily 5 times per week and chemotherapy 1 per week for the next 2 months as they need to treat it aggressively. I have weekly speech and dietician appointments as I will be having a feeding tube put into my stomach as I will have issues swallowing.

So far this has been an mentally and physically exhausting journey and one that was unexpected. I am asking you to please donate as I do not have enough leave to cover my treatment cycle. I like everyone else is struggling with cost of living and I am worried about medications, supplements, transport and bills.
