Story
I’m Donna, I’m a 45 year old woman, mother of 2 (and a fur baby), a daughter, a sister, an aunt, a niece, cousin, a godmother, a fierce and loving friend, confidante and colleague, a leader and a career woman…….. I’m also now a woman living with cancer.
I found out initially in November 2023 I likely had cancer after having an emergency endoscopy following a period of being sick; like a bug, the doctors thought I had an infection. I didn’t - it was confirmed stomach cancer in December after many biopsies and tests. A huge mass living in my stomach. This diagnosis has cut through and impacted everyone and everything that I love and has been a huge shock to us all.
Many of the early signs and symptoms are missed because they could relate to other common illnesses (for me ibs and a stressful lifestyle was the thing that hid the cancer really).
Through this charity we will raise funds to assist in raising awareness related to stomach cancer and support others through their cancer journey.
