equipment for paralysed man with incurable cancer
Donation protected
My name is elisa and my dads name is malcolm. recently our world came shattering down when dad was rushed into hospital when he lost the use of his legs.
this was initially put down to uti but after tests we discovered that he has stage 4 incurable prostate cancer which has spread to his lungs, lymph nodes and spine. The cancer on his spine has caused spinal compression and left him completely paralysed from the waist down.
not only has he got to come to terms that he has incurable cancer but also that he will never be able to walk again.
we are fundraising today to try and raise enough money to buy equipment to get him home from hospital asap. This money would be used to buy anything he needs or may need in the future to make his life more comfortable and to help his wife to care for his basic needs.
We are fundraising to buy equipment that may be more comfortable, and easier for him to use to try to gain back a little independence and generally make his life a little easier.
We are completely adapting his home to allow for wheelchair access and constant downstairs palliative care.
In a twist of cruel fate I am currently also battling this horrible disease with stage 3 breast cancer but we are committed to fighting this together side by side!
Any donations are gratefully appreciated at this horrible time and all money raised will go towards making his life so much more comfortable now and any time in the future.
Thankyou so much
