towards Ashleigh’s care and funeral arrangements

Donation protected
Hi, our names are Demi and Sophie, and we have set up this page to help towards the costs of our beautiful friends care and funeral arrangements when that time arrives

It is with a such a broken heart that we have to write this, and it’s hard to put into words how we are all feeling. Anything, even just £1 would go such a long way to taking that pressure off her fiancé John and her beautiful family.

I don’t even know where to start to try and explain what Ashleigh has went through so I’ll use some of her and Johns own words to do that

Ashleigh has been fighting for some sort of diagnosis and explanation to her sickness and symptoms for the last 4 years and it is absolutely devastating how it has now come to this.

Ashleigh had to go through 4 surgeries for cysts that were found to be borderline cancer which then resulted in a full hysterectomy, part of her stomach removed, the Omentum of her bowel removed and her appendix. This to go through alone was tough enough, knowing that they could never have their own children and no eggs could be saved.

After being discharged on boxing Day 2022 she was re admitted back into the royal on the 20th January as she wasn't feeling well and she's been there ever since. We received the diagnosis of a rare and aggressive form of mucinous ovarian carcinoma. She started on chemotherapy but last week, we were told that the chemo isn't working and that it would be in her best interests to stop as her symptoms were worse. The thing with the type of cancer she has is that it doesn't generally respond well to treatment, and that's exactly what's happening to Ashleigh.

I say this through gritted teeth and eyes full of tears, but there is no cure and her symptoms are getting worse. She's on copious amounts of painkillers, anti sickness and anti anxiety drugs to help her get through the day, and to try give her the best quality of life she needs.

There are no words that describe how Ashleigh, John, her beautiful family and us and other friends are feeling. Heartbroken doesn't even scratch the surface. She doesn't deserve any of this at all, it just isn't fair. Anyone who knows Ashleigh knows the type of person she is, she has the biggest heart ever and her love is so pure, there aren't many people like her in this world.

From John;
Ashleigh - I love you so so much, you are my world and I don't know where I'd be with out you. You're my queen, my beautiful babe, my forever and ever and always. I never want to say goodbye, I want to tell you I love you every single day forever. This cruel world is ready to take another person who absolutely didn't deserve it, a person who showed everyone so much love with no expectations of it in return. This isn't fair. I love you babe, I really really do and I will love you forever, no matter where we end up.
