“My parents will still have their daughter, my husband will still have his wife, my children will still have their mother. Whoever you are - thank you.”

Her story went viral after being shared on the Love What Matters Facebook page.

“I'm only halfway through my own treatment and I have already had my eyes opened to how important it is to reach out to people and just LOVE them,” she explained.

“You meet people each day that you don't realise are hurting and struggling and you can make such a difference with a phone call, a card, or a visit.

“We've have been showered with love by people - many of whom we don't even know - and this is just one example of it. There is so much good in this world. I will spend the rest of my life paying it forward & am so grateful.”
