My little bro

Donation protected
This is my little brother Chris. On the 31st January, my lovely brother, Chris, was diagnosed with a brain tumour after experiencing a sudden on set of pressure in his head and ringing in his ears. His wife, Danielle, whisked him off to A&E where they did an urgent CT scan. Once the results were in, they were given the news that Chris had an 8cm by 5cm brain tumour.
He was quickly given steroids to reduce the swelling on his brain and was kept in hospital for a few days then had to wait for the MDT meeting outcome.
On Wednesday 5th February, he attended LGI with our mum and Danielle and was told it is a glioma tumour, but they could operate.
Chris had 90% of the tumour removed on Friday 14th February and we now have to wait for the results of the histology to decide what treatment he'll need.
Chris is a brilliant Dad to their 3 children and the main provider for them so he is DESPERATE to get back to work, he wanted to get out of bed and go on the Saturday after surgery! But at the moment, no one knows when that will be, and he can't drive for the foreseeable. Being self employed means he isn't entitled to much or if anything and they are currently relying on Danielle's part time wage.
Chris is an amazing son, brother, Dad, husband, uncle, and would do anything for anyone. We are all in shock that this has happened. My brother is a very proud man and has kept alot of this to himself for the last 2 weeks and would love to just get back to work and get on with his life and put it all behind him. But reality is he can't right now and i will do anuthing to help. Any money raised will help them provide for the kids, and possibly help towards any other treatments available once they get the results. Every penny counts and I can't thank anybody enough if you can help in anyway.
