Don O'Mahony - Brain Cancer Research

This fundraiser is in memory of Don (Denis) O'Mahony. It was a personal wish of Don's before his recent passing that funds be raised for the Sid Faithfull Brain Cancer laboratory led by Professor Bryan Day at the Queensland Institute of Medical Research (QIMR Berghofer).

Bryan and his lab personally helped Don in his courageous battle by looking into potential trial treatments and offering he and his family hope. This lab focuses on Glioblastoma (GBM), the specific cancer Don fought, which is the most common and aggressive form of adult brain cancer. Sadly survival rates for GBM are very poor and meaningful advancements in patient treatment and survival have not changed for decades. New and better treatment therapies are urgently needed. And that's what Don's wish was - better treatments to provide other families suffering from GBM hope and a better outcome.

Please donate, in memory of Don, to fight this horrible disease.
