Story
At the end I will be dying my hair bright pink in support of her.
Micheala is am amazing woman who had always been there for anyone. She found a lump and her nightmare started last August, a right mastecomy was performed. The surgeon was very optimistic that they had caught it all. The was only 1 of the 5 lymp nodes were positive. So all seemed good till she started coughing, sounds like her lungs were trying to escape. Test and x-rays showed nothing, this went on for ages. Everytime an xray was taken nothing showed and finally a new indepth scan was arrange and there it was in her bones and a massive tumor in her left lung.
We looked at old xrays there was nothing, nothing showed she thought she was going insane. But this horrible monster was slowly invading everything till it was found to late.
It was like the rug had been pulled out from under her, the normally defiant and strong headed woman was gone. More tests were ordered, to see if it was the breast cancer spreading or something new. But these were delayed due to Michaela low oxygen levels, finally she was put on oxygen and had to start using a wheelchair to get around.
A decision was made after 11 weeks that they could not wait for any more tests and had to start Chemo therapy. As with out it she would not see Christmas. She was given the terminal status and advise that even with the Chemo this would only prolong her life not cure it.
So I have decided that she needs something cheerful and wonderful at the end of the treatment. Something to take her mind off everything that has happened this year it has been a nightmare. So this is why I am raising funds for her.
Please dig deep and lets give her something great at the end of this year. She does not believe the world cares I want to prove her wrong.
