A Shenstone woman with cancer has launched a fundraiser in a bid to fulfil her daughter’s dream.

Amanda Powell was diagnosed with stomach cancer in January – and discovered last month that it was inoperable.

She has now launched the fundraiser to take her seven-year-old daughter on a dream trip to Disneyland Paris.

“I was diagnosed with stomach cancer which was originally thought to be operable, but then I had more tests and the cancer has spread further in my stomach, meaning it is now not operable.

“I was told at the hospital that I have ten to 12 months to live.

“I have a 7-year-old daughter with a dream that we can go to Disneyland Paris. I would really love for this to come true and to have three or four days there with her before it is too late and I’m too ill to take her.”
