For many people who have been lucky to have gotten to known Uncle Clive over the years; knows that Uncle Clive is a hard worker, always willing to lend a hand and there is never a dull moment when he is in your company. 



Unfortunately a little over 18 months ago, Uncle Clive was diagnosed with pre-Leukaemia and was told that it would be monitored and not to worry. Last Christmas, Uncle Clive was given the horrible news that the pre-leukaemia had progressed and was diagnosed with a rare form of Leukaemia and was told that he would be lucky to spend Christmas with his family.

Uncle Clive being head strong like he is made a decision that he was not going to let the cancer win and decided to fight. After many long days, weeks and months of hospital stays, blood tests and chemotherapy etc, Uncle Clive was unfortunately given the bad news recently that there was no more they could do for him and has been told that he only has a weeks (maybe months) to live. On the 6th of October, before the bad news,  I visited Uncle Clive with the rest of my family during his chemo/hospital stay and noticed he was in great spirits. (see picture below). I have learned that unfortunately in the past month, his condition has deteriorated significantly and has landed back in hospital. 
One of his wishes is to reunite all his siblings together (7 brothers and 1 sister) one last time as its been years since they have all been together. Unfortunately, 3 of the brothers live in South Africa, and time is of the essence we are hoping to help reunite the siblings before Uncle Clive becomes incapacitated. Due to it being so close to Christmas, flights are incredibly expensive, and we are trying our best to support the 3 brothers with some financial assistance to bring them over to fulfil Uncle Clive's wish.

The other wishes Uncle Clive has is not to burden Aunty Carol and family with expensive medial bills due and possible funeral costs once he has passed.
