Help Krystel fight stage 4 melanoma

At 43, I never imagined I would be fighting stage 4 metastatic melanoma.

Everything has changed quickly, and right now time matters. The melanoma has spread to my lung, liver, lymph nodes, breast and brain. Despite how big this feels, I am not ready for my story to end.

Alongside funded treatment, there is an additional unfunded immunotherapy treatment (ipilimumab) that offers a higher chance of survival and the best opportunity to keep fighting this disease. To access this treatment, we need to raise $63,000

I am a mum to three incredible teenagers, they are my reason for fighting so hard. I want more time with them, more family snowboarding trips, more adventures, more milestones, more laughs, more hugs, more ordinary moments that suddenly mean everything.

I’m not ready for my story to end. I still have so much life I want to live.

Anyone who knows me knows I love adventure, exploring our beautiful country, connecting with the world, and saying YES to life. Right now, I am trying to keep choosing joy, connection and presence with the people I love most.

Funds raised will help access this unfunded treatment and support the practical realities that come with cancer treatment, allowing me to focus on fighting for more time with my children, family and friends.

If you are able to donate, share, or support in any way, it would mean more than I can put into words. Every contribution helps give me a chance to keep fighting.

Because it’s never too late to live.
