Skydive for Lauren's cancer battle
Donation protected
Everyone who knows me knows I'm absolutely terrified of flying / planes / heights (to the extent of counselling, medication and hypnotherapy just to get me on that plane). But that fear is NOTHING to what my friend Lauren is currently going through.
Lauren is a young mum of two and has very recently been diagnosed with an extremely aggressive grade 4 glioblastoma and despite undergoing brain surgery, she has been told that this is terminal.
The surgery removed 60% of the tumour but to remove the rest is too risky due to the brain damage it will cause. The next steps are chemotherapy and radiation which she has been told won't remove the tumour, but simply bide her more time.
After much research and success stories, Lauren has found immunotherapy in Germany which has proven to be lifesaving for people with similar diagnosis. Of course this comes at a huge price.
I will be jumping out of a plane at 15,000ft (the highest in the UK) to raise money to contribute towards her fund of getting her to Germany.
I'd be so grateful if you could donate what you physically can, even if its just £5, every little donation gets her that bit closer to getting this life saving treatment!
Thank you xx
