Helping Ange fight Lymphoma
Donation protected
Meet Ange, her partner Scott and their adorable 7 month old daughter Raven.
Ange was living her happily ever after with Scott, Raven and their fur babies. She’d just returned to work after maternity leave – just two weeks into a brand new job with great prospects. Everything was going to plan until Ange had her world turned upside down with the diagnosis of B Cell Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.
The type of cancer Ange has is not 'curable'. She will have it for life and it will continue to reoccur, although there is a chance of making remission at least once or twice. Her long-term prognosis is unclear at this stage. Ange and Scott want to do whatever they can to give them the chance to give Raven a sibling so will undergo IVF treatment before Ange begins chemo shortly in an attempt to freeze some embryos.
Ange’s condition is also associated with a rare autoimmune condition (Panniculitis) causing severe joint pain and swelling. Because of this she is in constant pain and is currently unable to walk unassisted or drive and completing everyday tasks, including looking after Raven is difficult.
With Ange obviously having to stop work for now, the medical expenses and everyday living expenses are starting to mount. To add to their already stressful situation, the house they have been renting is up for sale so they need to move out next month adding further unexpected coast when Ange’s chemo will be in full swing.
While her diagnosis comes as such an unfair shock, Ange is showing the most incredible resilience and positivity and is coming into this fight swinging.
Ange and Scott are very reluctant to do this as they don’t want to ask for money from friends and family, however, with their permission we are going ahead with setting up this page to hopefully help this amazing little family out. This will be especially important over the next few months when Ange’s treatment will be underway.
If you could find a spare dollar or two to help take some pressure off Ange, Scott and Raven it would be so much appreciated.
Thank you.
