Desperate appeal for cancer-stricken soloist, 44

Corinne Chapelle is a popular violinist on the international circuit. A graduate of the Menuhin School, she has given the Chinese premiere of the Samuel Barber violin concerto and has repsesented the US on various ceremonial occasions.

But now she needs our help.

In Corinne’s words: 

I have been diagnosed with cancer and am not a candidate for surgery or standard treatment due to the size and location of the tumour. I have been advised by my oncologist to seek targeted treatments which are available only in Germany and Switzerland…

My oncologist has suggested to foresee three rounds of targeted treatments over the course of one year, with a projected cost of £300,000. This sum is impossible for me to meet on my own, and I am asking for your help to reach my goal. …

I have a six year old daughter, Leila, whom I desperately want to watch grow up, blossom and reach her dreams.

The campaign starts tomorrow. Please help here if you can.
