Help for Dan & Cassey

Dan is 28 years old and has recently been diagnosed with Adenocarcinoma of the bladder; it has spread to the muscle and soon he will have to undergo a radical cystectomy and prostatectomy, before finding out whether chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy are also required.

His partner Cassey suffers with Crohn's disease, she has had multiple operations in the past. She worked at Queen Victoria Hospital for 9 years before leaving to do her Midwifery training. Sadly her Crohn's flare-ups have been so awful she has had to give up her training. The stress of Dan's diagnosis has caused another flare-up of her Crohn's resulting in her being admitted to hospital 1 day after Dan's diagnosis, and  she has undergone a hemi-colectomy. Unfortunately, Cassey has just been readmitted to hospital with an infection, adding to the stress of the whole situation.

Due to their poor health they are both unable to work at the moment and finances will be a struggle whilst Dan goes through his cancer treatment, and Cassey recovers from her bowel surgery. Whilst they are trying to support eachother, they also have a young daughter Poppy to care for.

Any donation you can spare, no matter how small will help and be greatly appreciated!! Thank you x
