<div>Hi, I’m Julie and I have just learnt that one of our beautiful students has been diagnosed with Mouth Cancer.
</div>
<div>Mr Aaron (Aaron) has been a student of MF Moreton for nearly 10 years, starting as a mighty matt and now he’s a Junior Instructor.
</div>
<div>In early October he and his family received the devastating news that Aaron has Mouth cancer.
</div>
<div>Fundraising will help with Megan and Bill taking time off work to be with Aaron, fuel for hospital trips and parking at the hospital. On top of this they have needed to hire a car l, as 2 weeks ago their only car broke down and they haven’t been able to get it repaired.
</div>
<div>Below is some information from his mum Megan
</div>

</div>
<div>Hey Julie,
</div>
<div>I don't how to put it into words all I can do is try and explain what what we know.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>5-6 weeks ago Aaron was being treated by his GP for a infected ulcer on the side of his tongue. After multiple different antibiotics and no improvement the growth grew bigger and quite rapidly and nothing was helping make it better.
</div>
<div>So on Tuesday 1/10 we took aaron too the emergency room at the RBWH and after some tests were done Aaron was diagnosed with a rare cancer on his tounge called Squamous cell Carcinoma and was also found in his lymphnodes on his neck
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This type of cancer does not happen in kids his age.
</div>
<div>The hospital dr's and surgeons have only seen 1 other case. Aaron cancer is aggressive and growing at a rapid rate hence why they have pushed for all the ct, mri &amp; pet scans to be done asap and rushed him through for surgery this Tuesday 8/10.
</div>
<div>The surgery is quite invasive and will take 8-12 hours to complete, they will be removing the cancer from his tounge and replacing it with muscle from his thigh &amp; also removing the lymphnodes from both sides of his neck, he will be spend at least 10-14 days in hospital.
</div>
<div>Once aaron comes out of surgery aaron won't be able to speak &amp; wont breath through his mouth or nose due too the swelling and will need a Tracheostomy to assist him breathing for the first 3-5days Aaron will be feed through a nasal gastic tube and peg feed in his tummy until he can learn too eat again which can take upto 3 months and will need to learn how to speak again.
</div>
<div>6 weeks post surgery Aaron will undergo go radiation therapy 5 days a week for 6 weeks and continuing through the Christmas period.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you so much for what you guys are doing this means so so much too our family.
</div>
