Sharon's Breast Cancer Journey
Please help Sharon with her Cancer Journey!
Auckland
Sharon is a valued colleague and friend who was recently diagnosed with Stage 3 Breast Cancer.
Health insurance is not going to cover all costs associated with her treatment and due to the urgency of her diagnosis Sharon was unable to go through the public system for her first round of treatments. Because Sharon is close to retirement, any excess funds will go towards recouping her retirement funds she has already used to fund her treatment.

Sharon is a valued colleague and friend to many and we would like to help her.
Use of funds
The money will be spent on the shortfall in funding Sharon's treatments.
Latest update
Hello and hope you are all well :-) 7 June 2022
Another 3 weeks has passed since my last update and we are heading for Winter, so far I have managed to dodge the flu and that other horrid disease out there that also starts with a ‘C’
Due to being unable to have the flu jab (my Dr has told me this would compromise my chemo) I have tried to keep myself as safe as possible.
I have managed to keep myself out of hospital. It’s been at least 3 weeks since the last blood transfusion.
When possible I try to keep up some level of fitness by walking my 2 Foxies (or as I like to call them “My Office Assistants”). My energy levels can be up and down and I tire a more easily than I used to - this will come back in time I am sure.
When I have Chemo, or I have time to relax I am busy knitting beanies for Auckland Oncology.
Once again I would love to thank you all for the ongoing support and kindness you show me. I work from home so I hear about all the hard work and fundraising that is happening through Email. I am totally blown away and feel so humbled.
Regards Sharon
