28 year old solo Mother to a 7 year old boy, has recently been diagnosed with Stage 3 Breast Cancer. Please help us raise funds for Steph.

Auckland

One of our Best Friends has recently been diagnosed with Stage 2 Grade 3 Breast Cancer, at the young age of 28! She is a full time single Mother to a wonderful 8 year old boy, Hayden.

On Friday 13th October Stephanie received the horrible news that she has 5 cancerous tumors in her left breast.

Less than two weeks after her diagnosis stephanie had a mastectomy and breast reconstruction on October 25th.

Stephanie is recovering well and is due to start her first chemotherapy cycle on Wednesday the 29th of November.

She will be having six cycles of chemo, once every three weeks until mid April 2018. She is also on herceptin once a month for the next 12 months and a monthly injection for the next five years until she is 33 years old.

Stephanie is waiting to here back if she tests positive to the BRCA gene and if so will be having a mastectomy on her right breast also.

Stephanie has been a long time high school best friend to us and we have created this page to try and help take some of the pressure off her & her family in this difficult time. Any donation big or small will mean the world to us all.

Use of funds

Stephanie is planning on continuing her university degree while having her treatment so funds will also be helping towards that.

Funds will be used to help cover medical bills and everyday expenses as Stephanie wont be able to work while having treatment and recovering.
