Our colleague and friend needs a little extra help

Hi, we are On Track Technicians (OTT) and we are fundraising for our friend James McMahon, his partner Katherine, daughter Ruby (9) and baby James (1). James was enjoying his time working with OTT when he suffered a seizure on site. Medical investigations took place and James and Katherine were thinking the cause to be epilepsy so he travelled to Liverpool for his appointment with the Consultant on his own, not realizing the devastating news to come. This heartbreaking news last week, that James has been diagnosed with a cancerous glioblastoma brain tumour, is unbearable for any family to fathom and even more difficult with young children. Major brain surgery scheduled quickly on Tuesday 12th December 23, where they were hopeful to remove at least 92%, and in 2 weeks time further treatment of radiotherapy and chemotherapy will commence. Glioblastoma cancer is a fast growing cancer so this just adds further devastation. The journey now for James and his young family will be a difficult one with many hurdles along the way for a considerable amount of time. Unable to continue in his work, benefits claims to enable them to live and honour their payments do not quickly. We would like to raise as much as we possibly can to help James and his family to at least alleviate the stress of financial burdens whilst trying to cope with this massive and devastating change in all their lives. James is such a lovely young man who was trying to provide for his family - can any one of us even begin to comprehend what they are currently going through.
