Please help with Drew Taylor’s funeral costs
Donation protected
Hi my name is Jenny and I'm fundraising towards my Dad, Andrew (Drew) Taylor's funeral costs.
In September 2021, Dad was diagnosed with cancer. Up until then he was a hardworking HGV driver who worked away all week in his wagon which he loved. He would then come home to us on the weekend and spend time with his family which again he loved.
After Dad's diagnosis in September and following major operations on his neck and tongue to remove the cancer, I became his full time carer. The neck operation was successful however the tongue operation caused him a lot of issues and he was in and out of hospital. After the operations Dad went through intense treatment for his cancer, completing 6 weeks of Radiotherapy and Chemotherapy 5 days a week. Dad absolutely smashed this and remained in good spirits throughout. The doctors and nurses were positive about the results of the treatment and he was on his way, slowly but surely to recovery. In the weeks after the treatment Dad was in a lot of pain, but was told that this was all just a side effect of the treatment and it would be temporary.
Unfortunately on the morning of the 11th of April, after fighting his battle with cancer, Dad tragically and unexpectedly passed away from undiagnosed Ischaemic Heart Disease.
