Terminally-ill mum sets up a fundraiser to support her kids after her death

A mum of three with only months to live has started a fundraiser to help support her children after her death. Louise Bees was diagnosed a with bowel cancer two years ago and has been having chemotherapy but the cancer has spread.

The 48-year-old said that sometimes she feels like she is living in an alternate reality, continuing everyday with normal life and trying not to think about the short time she has left with her children, who she has been bringing up on her own.

“I’m going to fight to stay here because I have my kids,” said Louise, whose cancer has now spread to her liver and lungs. She added it was 'heart-breaking' that she won’t be able to watch her children grow up, her youngest being only seven.
