Natasha and her family!

Natasha's Story below - taken from her page.

In September 2023, after visiting the breast clinic for the third time, Natasha was diagnosed with grade 3, triple negative breast cancer and was told she would require at least one years worth of treatment, including surgery.

Prior to her diagnosis, a family holiday had already been planned. Natasha knew that she would be facing weekly chemotherapy and three weekly immunotherapy treatment with many unwanted side effects. She decided she still wanted to go so that she could relax, make memories and feel like herself before she started the long, hard fight to clear herself of cancer.

Since her return home, Natasha has shown nothing but bravery, strength, resilience and determination to get better for her 2 young children and family. She has taken control by donating her hair to a little princess before losing it. She shares every step of her journey online; each treatment cycle, side effect, hospital admission and truth - which has helped many others.

Each treatment cycle has impacted Natasha more and more. She is severely fatigued and aches all over. She has experienced severe to life threatening skin reactions from the immunotherapy, to the point of hospitalisation and this treatment being stopped. She is also due to have major surgery in the coming weeks, which must be a terrifying thought and will also knock her off her feet for a while. Despite everything, she is doing everything she can for her babies and her family and she is still smiling everyday.

During her treatment, Natasha has been unable to work as a nurse, which is a job she absolutely loves and misses. This has obviously also had a financial impact upon her family, so we feel they deserve to have some quality time away together after the hardest times of their life., when Natasha has recovered. Any donation towards this will be greatly appreciated!
