Raising funds for my cousin whose 6 year old daughter is battling brain and spine cancer =( Please, every little bit helps!

Canterbury

I am desperately trying to raise funds for my cousin Cory and his wife Kat whose beautiful 6 year old daughter sadly has brain and spine cancer.

We would like to thank everybody who has helped us with their generous donations and hampers of food. It's been a blessing and the lovely comments and well wishes have kept us strong.

On the 13th of December Paige was diagnosed with an aggressive malignant brain tumor and two tumors on her spine which are cancerous. She underwent emergency brain surgery the very next day and faces a long road of chemo and radiation.

Unfortunately Paige has lost 100% of her eyesight =( Her mum has had to leave her job to be by her side and care for her while her dad is struggling to be at work and be with his daughter in hospital.

Currently Paige is undergoing radiation for 6 weeks in hope that it reduces her cancers although it's about a 50/50 chance. Her tumor has been sent to Australia and will be going to Germany as they struggle to diagnose what the tumor is. It's a very rare cancer that could be incurable but we have no answers yet. At the moment it's a waiting game.

**************************************

For a year and a half, Paige has been suffering with horrific headaches where she would wake up screaming in pain. Her mum took her to the doctors numerous times and they were sent home each time as the doctors said it's only a small headache. It wasn't until Paige's vision started fading that her mum took her to an optometrist who noticed her optic nerve was quite enlarged. They sent her straight for an MRI which not only showed a brain tumor taking up a quarter of her brain, but there was a cyst next to it that had bursted. Doctors said she only had a couple of days left to live without the risky brain surgery.

There is a picture of the MRI in the gallery but i'd like to give a trigger warning as it's quite shocking =(

We are praying Paige makes a quick and speedy recovery and staying strong and positive her her mum and dad xxx
