Cancer mom needs help Campaign

Introduction: Dear friends, family, and compassionate strangers,

I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out on behalf of someone very dear to me, Ina Marsh, who is facing an incredibly challenging period in her life.

But first a little bit of backstory about Ina.  

She is the oldest of four children, this was the 1950s and as was the norm those days she was tasked to help raise all three her younger siblings.  Thus, she became this fiercely independent individual who is always on the ready to help anyone in need without asking anything in return.

And now back to the present:

On 24 November this year she received the devastating news of a breast cancer diagnosis. Siyah, her beloved dog has been the dream pet from day one. Ina could always turn to her for hugs or cuddles when she needed her. As if the weight of her diagnosis wasn't enough, tragedy struck again on Saturday, 2 December. Siyah suffered a severe injury. The poor dog fell off a 2m high deck, resulting in a badly fractured front paw. The vet has recommended surgery as the only viable option to ensure a full recovery.

The Cost of Healing: 

Unfortunately, the necessary surgery comes with a hefty price tag that Ina simply cannot shoulder alone. As she battles cancer, her dog has been her unwavering source of emotional support and companionship, providing solace in the face of adversity.

Our Call to Action: 

This is where we, as a community, can make a significant difference. We are reaching out to ask for your support in raising funds to cover the medical expenses for Siyah. Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a meaningful impact and bring them one step closer to healing.

How You Can Help:

Donate: Contribute whatever amount you can to the crowdfunding campaign

Share: Spread the word by sharing this campaign on your social media platforms and with friends, family, and colleagues.

Encourage: Leave words of encouragement and support for both Siyah and Ina in the comments section.

Closing Words: In times of adversity, it's the strength of community that makes the journey a little easier. Let's rally together to support Ina as she faces these dual challenges. Your kindness and generosity will not only alleviate the financial burden but also serve as a powerful reminder that no one fights alone.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being a beacon of hope in Ina's life.

With gratitude, Elizabeth Marshall
