UK Mom’s High-Risk Spine Surgery After Rare Tumor Battle

Sam Butler, a 41-year-old London mother, has battled giant cell tumors since 2020, undergoing multiple leg surgeries including an above-knee amputation; she now faces a three-part, high-risk spinal operation to remove spinal tumors, after doctors noted GCTs are usually non-cancerous with only about 4% turning malignant, and her sister has started a GoFundMe to cover medical costs, which has raised about £21,600 of a £24,000 goal.
