My Story

In July 2020 I was diagnosed with malignant melanoma while 36 weeks pregnant with my first child. I hope by sharing my journey I can raise awareness of skin cancer and give back to cancer research. After three major surgeries in my first six months of motherhood and a year and a half immunotherapy treatment I'm showing clear scans. I count myself lucky I was so far on in my pregnancy that Leo was delivered safe and healthy, that I was able to get the treatment I needed and wasn't forced to make a life or death decision. I'll be eternally grateful that as a new mum I was rushed through for every scan, test, surgery and treatment when our incredible NHS was stretched to the limit fighting COVID. You just never think it will happen to you. But cancer does, to one in two people. And two women a day get melanoma in and around pregnancy. In fact the number of mums needing support from Mummy's Star charity has more than doubled in the last 18 months alone. Thanks for taking the time to visit my fundraising page. Cancer is happening right now, which is why I’m fundraising right now for Cancer Research UK. There’s no time to lose! Donate to my page today and help bring forward the day when all cancers are cured.
