Amanda's fight for more time

Support to help fund Amanda's unfunded Cancer treatment.

Christchurch, Canterbury

My dear sister in law Amanda has been confronted with the devastating news her cancer has progressed and is now in need of some financial help.

To meet Amanda you would never know she is living with this horrible disease. Through out her cancer journey she has continued to be one strong,courageous individual who can light up a room with her funny and addictive personality and I have the privilege in calling her my sister in law.

Please read her story below and consider donating to help fund treatment to give her more precious time to live and make more memories with her loved ones. This includes her two Fur babies Daisy and Poppy.

Some of you will know about my cancer and the challenges I have faced over the past 4 years.

In 2020 I was diagnosed with incurable Metatastic Breast Cancer.

I was doing really well until earlier this year when the cancer started to spread.

I underwent a grueling regime of radiation and chemotherapy, to find out this week the cancer again has spread.

There is a new drug called Trastuzumab deruxtecan that can help stop the spread of this disease and give me more memories with family and friends.

Unfortunately this drug is not yet funded in NZ and I need to ask for wider help.

Please consider donating.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart

Amanda ❤️
