<div>Our dad is someone who always puts others before himself and who never hesitates to help, if he can. 11 years ago, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. He had radiation treatment, but in the end, it failed to kill the cancer. Surgery was not an option. So, for the past 11 years he has been quietly managing his cancer without complaint. His cancer management has made him feel crappy, but it helped prevent his cancer from growing. And it was working, until it wasn't…
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Last fall we learned his treatments were failing and his cancer was spreading. He was diagnosed with Stage 4A Prostate Cancer. His treatment now can suppress his cancer growth for the next 3-5 years. But after that, his cancer will spread. His cancer stage is simply not curable with the treatment options available here in Canada.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We have just learned that he can receive a treatment known as LU177 PSMA therapy in Berlin, Germany. The treatment shows significant benefit for metastatic prostate cancer, and if successful can prolong his life expectancy. More info here: <a href="https://www.mayoclinic.org/medical-professionals/cancer/news/lutetium-177-shows-significant-rpfs-benefit-for-metastatic-prostate-cancer/mac-20561488" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><a href="https://www.mayoclinic.org/medical-professionals/cancer/news/lutetium-177-shows-significant-rpfs-benefit-for-metastatic-prostate-cancer/mac-20561488" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.mayoclinic.org/medical-professionals/cancer/news/lutetium-177-shows-significant-rpfs-benefit-for-metastatic-prostate-cancer/mac-20561488</a></a>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It's not available through the Canadian public health system (yet!).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So, he will be going to Germany at the end of May 2024 to have the first round of treatment privately. The total treatment costs could range upwards of $90,000 CAD and he needs some help. At the strong urging of his good friends, Tom Andrews and Gavin Renwick, we are launching this go-fund-me campaign in his honour. Any support (even encouraging words) is welcome, because asking for this help is not exactly easy.
