An Omagh mother of three has been overwhelmed with the response to a fundraising campaign after raising more than £120,000 for her cancer treatment.
Jemma McGowan (27) from Knockmoyle was given just one year to live after being diagnosed with a rare form of ovarian cancer shortly after the birth of her third child.
After exhausting her treatment options locally, Jemma was attempting to raise £70,000 to fund her costs for treatment in Mexico, reaching that target within one day of setting up her Go Fund Me page. The total amount raised stands at more than £123,000.
