Wednesbury woman with terminal cancer launches fundraiser after being left homeless following split

A Wednesbury woman who has been diagnosed with terminal cancer has launched a fundraiser after being left homeless.

Nicki Titley, aged 45, is battling stage four secondary breast cancer, and currently receives treatment from the Goscote Palliative Care Centre in Walsall.

She is undergoing chemotherapy while also living with type two diabetes and fibromyalgia, but faces her health battles alone after splitting from her partner of 20 years last year.

Ms Titley currently lives in temporary accommodation after losing her home, and is raising money to rebuild her life.

She has launched a GoFundMe as she says she “literally has nothing”.

Ms Titley wrote on her page: “I’ve fallen on hard times. Last year I split with my partner of 20 years and I have been living in furnished temporary accommodation since.

“In my battle with stage four secondary breast cancer I have had a right mastectomy and lymph node clearance. I have now been diagnosed with type two diabetes and fibromyalgia from being on the same type of chemo for so long so I can’t go to work and raise the money for the things I need that way.

“I don’t like asking for help but I can’t see any other way around it. I know it’s hard times at the moment but every little helps me. I literally have nothing.”

She added: “My family has helped with items if they have it. But I still need the larger items in each room.

“Please if you can put a little donation that’s great and would be very much appreciated, and if you can’t could you share for me? That also would be very much appreciated.”
