Tough Mudder for Lesley
Donation protected
A group of crazy girl friends & I (aka Lesley's Tough mudder legends) are going to do a 9km assault course to raise funds for my amazing cousin Lesley. (Pictured with her mum Greer).
Lesley is a gorgeous, bubbly, positive, wife and mother of 3 young boys. Lesley was diagnosed with Breast Cancer in January 2015. She took all treatment offered - mastectomy, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and hormonal therapy. She was given another horrible blow 1 year after finishing treatment, and in November 2016 she was told that the Breast Cancer had spread to her Liver and Lungs and that she was now terminal and only palliative chemo could be offered.
Lesley has had 3 different chemotherapy treatments since December which are sadly not working.
Even though options are few and far between for Breast Cancer patients in the UK, Lesley being Lesley (a determined, strong fighter) spent hours researching treatments and came across a treatment in the UK, available to Bowel Cancer patients with Liver Metatasis on the NHS but not available to Breast Cancer Patients with Liver Metatastises on the NHS.
Lesley recently flew to Manchester and had SIRT treatment. SIRT is a revolutionary treatment for cancers of the liver that uses new technology to deliver radiation directly to the site of the tumor.
Lesleys friends, family and the community in her home town in N.Ireland have done an amazing job to fund this treatment - cost of up to 20,000 pounds.
We want to continue to help her in any way we can, so that she can get access to further treatment she may require and not have the stress and worry about the cost. We'd also like to help her to have wonderful experiences and make memories with her 3 young children and loving husband Lee!
Please donate what you can to this very wothwhile cause.
