Help with medical bills for cancer treatment

Hi guys, my name is Natalie and I'm raising funds to cover my medical bills for the treatment of multiple myeloma which is an incurable bone marrow cancer.

3 months ago I was a perfectly fit, healthy, and active 37-year-old. I am a mom to a beautiful 16-year-old girl called Loretta who is my absolute everything. We had big dreams and plans for the future until everything changed pretty much overnight.

I started getting back pains that turned into excruciating agony within 2 weeks, shortly after I arrived in the UK for a brief visit. I ended up in A&E and after a number of tests was told that my T10 vertebrae collapsed and required urgent surgery. I was hoping surgery was all it would take to resolve the issue, but the more doctors were looking into what caused the collapse, the worse it was starting to look.

I was eventually diagnosed with multiple myeloma (I have another tumor in my L5 vertebrae) and was told I will require chemotherapy, at least one bone marrow transplant, and will then remain on chemotherapy medication for the rest of my life to give me the best chances of survival as there is no cure for myeloma and it is terminal. However, my remaining life expectancy can be significantly extended with the right treatment and the transplant/s.

I've been an inpatient in the hospital for 3 months, have just completed my second cycle of chemotherapy, and was finally allowed to change to the outpatient regime. I live in constant pain caused by tumors pressing on the spinal cord, and my operated vertebrae is continuing to collapse due to cancer damage. My mobility is very limited due to pain because even cancer doses of heavy painkillers only take the edge off the pain. But I am hopeful that the pains will improve as I progress through the chemotherapy and the tumors start to shrink and heal.

I don't qualify for free NHS treatment as I was on a tourist visa here and everything happened so suddenly and unexpectedly. I can't leave the country at the moment as I am simply not strong and fit enough to travel.

I run my own business and have been actively working as soon as I recovered from surgery. Initially, I was hoping I'll be able to handle the financial expenses myself by working really hard (I'm a single mom so working my butt off is something I've been doing for most of my life!), but once the figures started coming in, I realized I simply can't earn the amount needed in a short period of time, especially while going through very aggressive chemotherapy.

My consultant is saying it's unusual to get this type of cancer so early in life, but being young allows me to tolerate high doses of toxic drugs and gives me a high chance of living longer than older patients would. I'm keeping a positive mindset and am hoping to prolong my life as much as possible for the sake of my daughter and my loved ones.

I am raising funds to cover the medical bills that I've incurred to date as well as to cover the costs of the upcoming treatments like 2 more cycles of chemotherapy, bone marrow transplant/s, prep for it, rehabilitation afterward, and then the chemotherapy drugs for the rest of my life.

I would be grateful for any contribution and am thanking everyone in advance for their support and compassion.
