Living with MCAS can be challenging, but the kindness and support of others make all the difference. This space is here for you to share your gratitude—whether it’s for a friend who’s always there, a family member who listens, a doctor who takes the time to understand, or someone at Mast Cell Action who has supported you. Leave a message to say thank you to those who have helped you along the way. Your words might brighten someone’s day and remind them just how much they matter.
I want to thank my wonderful husband for his constant unconditional kindness, care and support - both practical and emotional - through this difficult time. I am so grateful for you. x x

I just want to say a big thank you to my wonderful husband for supporting me through this horrid chapter and for showing up for me in the big and little moments. I love you so much. We will get through this, happier days ahead!
A big thank you to those family members and friends who have supported me since my diagnosis. It means the world to me.
Thank you to my doctor who took the time to thoroughly go through everything and listen carefully to make this diagnosis.
Lastly a big thanks to the volunteers, your information and support has helped to make my diagnosis possible. Thank you so much.

We would like to send a huge 'Thank You' to Becky Spooner and her brilliant team — Hannah, Buster, Holly, Rhys, and Harry — who completed a sponsored 12km swim wearing parachutes to symbolize the weight and difficulty of swimming during an MCAS flare. Together, they raised an incredible £441 in just 6 days!
Thank you for raising awareness and support in such a powerful way.

Thank you so much to all our amazing volunteers who do so much to support the work at Mast Cell Action. Without their help we couldn't do all the things we do - their work really does make so much difference to people's lives. I am so grateful to them for all the time that they give us.

I want to give a huge thanks to all of our wonderful volunteers. We wouldn't be able to do half of what we do with you. You are all incredible, and I feel so blessed I get to work with such beautiful people!

Alice Mclaren-Townsend
For my haematologist: When I became poorly I had no idea what was wrong with me. I was part of a v*ccine injury support group that made me suspect MCAS. I spent 2 years with a far less quality of life and often in bed, 30 symptoms at least including inflammation which was self-esteem crushing as it made me add 5 stone. I happened to move house and fortunately enough a local NHS haematologist who took on my case, carried out all the tests, diagnosed me with MCAS and got me on treatment. A year being on LDN I was back to my normal size and medication and low histamine diet have vastly improved my quality of life. Moving house was a blessing!
Henrietta Freeman
I am forever grateful to my wonderfully supportive husband. Without his love, understanding & continuous flexibility this journey would have been so much harder to deal with. Love you loads xx

I want to say thank you to the friends and family who have supported us and helped us through the tough times. Being unwell can help you to realise what (and who!) is really important
