Helping Make My Last Special Memories with Family
Donation protected
Hi,
I've tried my hardest against all odds to stay strong and fight the cancer. But the cancer is winning and I have been told I will be very lucky to see Christmas as the chemotherapy isn't working at all and there is nothing else they can do to help me.
At 39years old I didnt think I would be making plans for my last days..
My children are still so young {20, 11 and twins 9} I am trying to come to terms with how I will be missing out on teaching them about life, guiding them through their tough days and celebrating their happy ones with them. I won't get to see them grow up to be the amazing men I know they will be. Or there when they have their first girlfriends, celebrate their milestone birthdays, finish school, be married or know my grandchildren.
I can only hope they remember how much I love and cherish every part of them and how grateful I am to have had the time we have had together and to just be their Dad..
I'm hoping to Marry my partner before I pass or deteriorate to far, so I can still have a wedding dance with her and watch my beautiful bride walk down the aisle, and just to be able to proudly call her my Wife..
We are trying to make everyday count spending as much time as possible together, please donate to help us make some amazing lifetime memories in the short time I have left.
{the beginning storey}
I was diagnosed on good friday with terminal cancer, I was told I only had weeks to live and with treatment it would only extend my life by a few months. I have three young boys, a young adult son and partner. My diagnosis and all that has happened since my diagnosis has been really tough on them and it has broken all our worlds. On anzac day I crashed and was told I had hours to live, they came and said goodbye to me on my death bed, it has been an emotionally traumatic experience for them over and over.
I have an aggressive form of non small cell metastatic carcinoma. It's everywhere in my brain, lungs, throat, all through my body.
I made a youtube when I found out, trying to educate people along my journey of fighting this horrible destructive disease. I have now been told it is not curable only manageable with Chemotherapy, Immunotherapy and amazing technology like Gamma Knife Radiation Surgery to shrink the 7+ brain tumors.
Medical expenses, (travel, medications, equipment hire etc) are ridiculously expensive and it's put my family and I under severe financial, mental and emotional strain.
