I'm asking for help because I want more time.

I am living with advanced liver disease, and although I have fought hard to get to where I am today, I am not ready to give up on life.

I want the opportunity to explore specialist treatments and medical advances that could potentially improve my quality of life and give me more time.

There are developing areas of medical research and treatment, including macrophage cell therapy, that I would like to investigate with appropriate medical specialists.

Unfortunately, accessing specialist consultations, exploring treatment options and potentially travelling for suitable treatment can be expensive.

I am setting up this fundraiser to give myself a chance to explore those opportunities.

Every donation, no matter how small, would mean an enormous amount to me. Donations would go towards appropriate medical consultations, specialist treatment where medically suitable, travel and accommodation associated with treatment, and other related expenses.

I understand that no treatment can guarantee results, but I believe it is worth exploring every genuine opportunity available.

I have chosen to keep my identity private because asking for help is not easy for me. But I hope people will understand that behind this fundraiser is simply someone who wants to live longer.

If you cannot donate, sharing this page would mean just as much.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for giving me hope.

Sometimes all someone wants is a little more time.
