Nick was diagnosed with Appendix Cancer, he has a rare type of cancer but thankfully it is a slow growing type.
Nick was been undergoing chemotherapy for about 9 months, he had some success with the last drug they gave him which started to shrink the tumors in his abdomen.
Nick had a surgery in December that did not go as well as he hoped. They were able to remove some of the “slime” from his abdomen but were unable to remove his Appendix or any of the tumors. Due to the surgery they took him off of the Chemotherapy, but he is expected to resume by late January 2021.
Nick and his doctors are hopeful that the Chemotherapy will shrink the tumors enough that they can do a future surgery to remove the tumors and Appendix.
Officers from 43 Division have suggested a lot of idea’s to assist Nick in this terrible time. The idea that Nick liked the best was to create a Detective Nick Ashley scholarship at Cedarbrae Collegiate here in 43 Division. I have been in touch with the administration at Cedarbrae and they love the idea and are super supportive of this scholarship in Nicks name.
Nick will be the person to pick the criteria for the student that gets awarded the scholarship, the school with pick the student based on Nicks wishes. I am hopeful that Nick will be well enough and COVID gets under control enough for Nick to be able to award the student in person, he is really excited about this project.
