According to Pancreatic Cancer UK, pancreatic cancer is the deadliest common cancer, with 80% of cases not being diagnosed until the disease has spread.
To support her in this, Mia has set up a JustGiving page for her mum, hoping the funds raised will contribute to various therapies and experiences to support her well-being alongside her treatment, and ease the financial burden on the family.
A mum who initially dismissed her back pain and loss of appetite as minor issues was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
While doctors can't cure stage four pancreatic cancer, they can treat it with the aim of prolonging life, improving quality of life and managing symptoms.
Every donation, Mia says, will "make the world of difference" and help the family "navigate this difficult path with as much dignity and support as possible.".
