**Funding amount has been reduced to £550 as we have been provided a cheque for both the washing machine and bed**

This page is to help a beautiful woman named Jackie has been diagnosed with cervical cancer which has metastasised to her brain. Unfortunately to make matters worse she has also fractured 2 vertebra in her back when she fell earlier this year due to osteoporosis linked to age, and so her manoeuvrability and general ability to do this has been reduced quite significantly. To compound our issues as Jackie is currently in hospital she is unable to receive Personal Independence Payments, and we have a 7 week wait for Universal Credit application to go through and to make its first payment, so any donations towards covering rent/council tax/other bills would be extremely appreciated by both of us.

To make her time at home after she is discharged from hospital as comfortable as possible and to support us (it is me, her son, and her at home) during the time until she is discharged, we need to buy some equipment for our kitchen as she is unable to manually do what she used to as well as a new bed/mattress for her. Please help me get her as comfortable as possible.

Jackie is a wonderful woman, and an amazing parent, she has done an amazing job of raising me, and over the years we have gone on brilliant travels and she is a lovely person who is always happy in her life, even now she is managing to stay happy and hopeful. I want her to be the most comfortable she can be during her treatment and recovery.
