In March 2026, I was diagnosed with leukaemia. So BLK CHERRY is taking a bit of a pause while I focus on treatment and healing.

Work is everything to me, so please keep enquiring, I’ll be back as soon as I’m able.

Cancer doesn’t discriminate. So if something feels off (or even if it doesn’t) ask for a blood test. Listen to your body because early detection matters.

As well as chemotherapy, I will need a stem cell transplant to prevent the cancer from returning. However, my doctor told me that it can be much harder for mixed race people to find a match.

So, my call out is this: please consider becoming a stem cell donor. Especially if you are a person of colour, or you have mixed race heritage.

It’s a non-surgical process where blood is taken from one arm, passed through a machine to harvest stem cells, and returned to the other arm. It saves lives, and I will need this treatment to save mine.

Every new donor increases the chances for others waiting for a transplant. Mixed‑heritage patients often face the lowest match rates because our HLA combinations are less common in donor registries.

I am so lucky to have the support system I have around me. I have been inundated with love and it’s keeping me going.

Please keep making enquiries if you want a website from me in the future, because I will be back!

As I am self employed, my income has stopped and I won’t be earning any money for at least the next couple of months. Any donation (no matter how small) will help towards my living costs and I will be endlessly grateful.

Thank you so much for reading.
