Dani is my best friend, we have had one of the most wonderful starts to the year when she married her bestfriend, soul mate and life partner Kelly. They have 2 beautiful sons and have such a happy family life together.
As life has its twists and turns , Dani was diagnosed with kidney
cancer on Monday. It still doesn't feel right, or real, to even say
that......but it is...
As many of you know, she's had some
problems with pain - which was suspected as gallbladder issues - for a
little while and we've been in and out of the hospital for tests.
Finally, after ultrasounds and a CT, it was revealed and
diagnosed...
It is contained and only in one kidney, so it is
going to be removed asap -- the appointment for surgery should be in a
week or so. We are, of course, still a bit in shock...and if I'm
honest, the emotions are a total rollercoaster from one end of the
spectrum to the other. However, we are positive and we ask that you be
for us, too. It was a miracle they found it this early, and that the
prognosis is so good. We need to keep our prayers, wishes, thoughts
and intentions, on the surgery removing it all and it being curative
and a speedy recovery after quite major surgery for Dani. We are so
grateful it was found now, despite how overwhelming it feels -- so
please don't be too sad, it's all going to be ok. The journey may be
tough, but if we stay positive and strong and united, we can get
through anything.
The reason i have set this fund up is that Dani is a self employed Tattoo artist, she is the sole provider to her family. Due to the surgery she is about to undertake she will be out of work and be unable to make any money to support her family. Due to the sudden nature of this diagnosis we have been unable to have any savings in place and do to the ongoing health conditions she has had many days off.
It is very hard for anyone suffering from cancer to not worry about their family let alone when they are the sole provider for their family. I am asking for donations to help make life a little easier and less stressful at this time. Any excess money collected will go towards a cancer charity once Dani has finished her treatment. It has come at the worse of times leading up to Christmas and unfortunately the only thing we want is Dani cancer free and to give her and her wife and boys the most special christmas, that they will never forget.
There is no donation too small it will all be put towards the use of keeping Dani and her family safe and warm in their own house while she recovers from surgery.
