About Appeal

Edith is only 44 years old and last year sadly was diagnosed with Stage 3.1 Cervical Cancer with the discovery of an 8cm cancerous tumour . Since her diagnosis she has undergone months of daily radiation, concurrent weekly chemotherapy and brachytherapy. Unfortunately she recently found out that the cancer has been resistant and will now need to undergo a significant surgery (pelvic exenteration) in order to try and cure her from the cancer and give her the chance she deserves to live a long life with her lovely daughter and beautiful granddaughter in the Philippines.

Edith is part of our family and is the kindest and warmest woman with a truly fantastic sense of humour, she has the most incredible energy and outlook on life. She is also without a shadow of a doubt the strongest and most brave person we have ever met, since her diagnosis in August 2022 she has never once complained about her situation. Throughout months of daily radiation, and accompanying chemotherapy that would have floored anybody else, she has faced everyday with a hugely positive outlook and strong resolve.


We, her employers, have supported Edith through her treatment and will continue to do so. We want to do everything we can do help her survive this and her daughter is currently staying with us so they can have time together. Edith and her daughter have made the decision that they would like to do this surgery back in the Philippines with family around and we have committed to supporting them and trying to solve the funding required for it through our amazing friends, family and community.


Frustratingly insurance for foreign workers in Singapore is quite insufficient.The operation will be major and the recovery period will be long, the after-effects of the surgery will change her life but we pray that it could also save her life. We can think of nothing better than having Edith return to join our family in a year or so fully recovered and we hope that will happen.


If you are able to help we would be SO very grateful for a donation towards Edith’s surgery, even the smallest donation will make a difference. Thank you so so much for your support.
