Malika Joseph Urgent Cancer Treatment Appeal
Donation protected
Good day to each and every one taking the time to read this request for help, that we are making on behalf of my beautiful cousin Malika.
Malika is the first of three children born in St Lucia to my aunty Lucella. As a consequence, caring and looking after her siblings is second nature to Malika. Particularly in the case of her brother who has a form of non verbal autism which requires him to be cared for round the clock, a job it seems Malika was sent directly from heaven to do. The love and patience she showers on her brother, the sacrifices she has made on his behalf is testament to her loveliness.
Last year, after supporting her mother through a serious illness, Malika, on returning to St. Lucia (where healthcare is private) was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 36. She underwent surgery as well as arduous chemotherapy treatment. An ordeal that sadly many go through when tackling cancer. She came to the UK some months ago to be with her mother, who lives and works as a nurse for the NHS. Last week after a routine scan it was discovered that Malika would need a further course of treatment as cancer was still prevalent, but this time in her liver. Being a non UK citizen she is not entitled to free healthcare (although her mother works for the NHS). For her urgent life saving treatment to commence, Malika needs £15,000 which will give her an 80% success rate if done immediately.
I am acutely aware of the financial burdens that many go through at this time of year, so if you can help alleviate the financial strain bless you, if you can help verbally with a prayer - blessings all the same. Every grain of positivity is a help and no one is more verbally positive than Malika.
