    Story

    On the 10th December 2020 my sister with diagnosed with Breast Cancer. At the age of 25 and being 25 weeks pregnant at the time with her second child.

    January 2021 she under went a Mastectomy which should have been the road to recovery lead the journey to more stress and heartbreak. It turns out she has Triple Negative Cancer. Which is a lot harder to treat and fast spreading. Due to the Cancer had spread beyond the Breast at that time they had to start Chemo before the Birth of Delilah.

    A few days after the birth Sophie had to undergo more tests to see where the Cancer was exactly in the body. It turns out it was also in her neck which means it would be incurable as hard as that news was there was still hope with different forms of intensive chemo to help shrink and stop the spread. Sophie has spent most of this year undergoing chemo. Taking its tool mentally and physically.

    All whilst being a mother to a toddler and a baby. As if that isn't hard enough.

    Today the 3rd of November Sophie has been told that the Cancer has spread to the Spine, Ribs, and Hips. And has been re-staged to Stage 4. This is devastating news for us all.

    My sister always helps others and she has always looked after me and now I want to help reward her. By sending her on a holiday of a life time to Disney Land Paris. To be able to make those precious memories with her girls. They all need something good to enjoy and look forward too.

      It is with a lot of sadness we announce that Sophie passed away peacefully this afternoon. Marking the end of her battle with Cancer. This past week has been the worst. Sophie was in constant pain and discomfort. It was absolutely heartbreaking to watch. But Sophie is a fighter and she fought hard till her last breath. Sophie was an amazing character! And she touched a lot of people's hearts in her short 26 years of life. She was full of love, fun and laughter.
