We're supporting Jo Jones a young Mum with secondary breast cancer 

"My name is Jo and I am 32 years old. I have a beautiful and very lively daughter who is about to turn 3 years old, a wonderful, loving husband and supportive family. My life is perfect except for the fact that I have secondary breast cancer that is in my bones and just last week we have discovered that it has also travelled to my liver. The Drs have offered my last hope which is a forth gruelling dose of chemotherapy in the hope of extending my life but there is no cure for this condition available on the NHS.

I have discovered a treatment centre founded on the work of Dr Issels which has had miraculous affects in treating cancer patients with conditions even as advanced as mine but the treatment is expensive. I need £30,000 to complete their month long immunotherapy program in Mexico and I need to go as soon as possible. With the amazing goodwill of family, friends and complete strangers we have so far managed to raise a massive £7000 but we have a long way to go and no time to waste.

You can donate or learn about my story at www.seizethisday.co.uk we have a facebook page of the same name for updates, information and events you can attend."

How we are helping

What's On 4 are helping to find items for an auction on Sunday 28th March from 6pm at the CROUCHERS COUNTRY HOTEL AND RESTAURANT BIRDHAM ROAD WEST SUSSEX P020 7EH. 

We have been asking the many companies we work with and via Twitter for donations for the auction and we have already received over £1500 worth of pledges. Including a £200 wedding cake and a luxury weekend away at Hilton St Anne's Bracknell. Thank you so much to these amazingly generous companies and individuals.

If you can donate anything for the auction or make a small direct donation or buy one of Jo's CDs it would make all the difference. Thank you.  Visit www.seizethisday.co.uk for Jo's full story, to pledge, help or donate.
