May from Weymouth was 24 years old. Over 60000 people signed a petition calling for the Home Office to allow her sister into the UK to donate bone marrow to her. The African Caribbean Leukaemia Trust (ACLT) worked with May through her two years with the disease. Beverley De-Gale is the co-founder of that charity.
