Donation protected
We are Aaron’s work colleagues at Siemens and Ørsted Renewable Energy and more so his friends, we organised a cycle ride “Coast2Coast” in 2017 and raised £15000
Sadly Aaron lost his battle on the 28th September 2018 whilst surrounded by loved ones and family.
Some of his final discussions with Saraya were to continue the Charity to help others in similar situations. With that in mind, this year we want to smash that target! Please help, share, donate and spread the word!!
Background
Aaron was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive cancer called Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma at the age of 28.
The cancer is aggressive and has a very high return rate, as we have already seen chemo and radiotherapy won't stop this.
We believe his only chance at long term survival is a treatment called immunotherapy. Unfortunately this treatment is very costly and must be obtained privately. This type of treatment is becoming commonplace in other countries and has proven to be very promising for Aaron’s type of cancer, but the rarity of rhabdomyosarcoma means that it likely won’t be available on the NHS for some years. Although the doctors have told Aaron his cancer is terminal, we strongly believe if he can get this treatment it will give him many more years with the people he loves. It is for this reason we must ask for help in this stressful time. Any contribution made will be spent on treatment that has been chosen as a result of many weeks of research and professional advice. We believe this will be critical in saving Aarons life.
