Stephens Journey To Recovery

Donation protected
Stephen and I had only just started our lives together as we married 6 short months ago on Christmas eve of 2020

Things were finally starting to settle into place when we received the most heartbreaking and earth shattering news.

On Friday the 11th of June, Stephen was taken to hospital with multiple concerning symptoms. After 10hrs, a bunch of test and different scans, Stephen received the news that confirmed our very worst fears.

He was diagnosed with testicular cancer and after the last CT scan, doctors had confirmed that the cancer had spread to his lower abdomen area and small spots were also found in his lungs that still need monitoring.

Stephen has been pushed up to Category 1 therefore has been placed on the highest priority for surgery and is awaiting a set date. Stephen will then need time to heal from the surgery before undergoing chemotherapy.

Stephen currently works as a production line worker/lab technician but will be needed to take a couple of months off for his surgery/recovery and chemotherapy.

I am more desperate than ever to give my husband the opportunity to take time off to receive the life saving treatment he needs and to recover peacefully without having to worry about medical expenses, bills or the possibility of facing homelessness for the second time.

I am reaching out for any kind of financial support to ensure this beautiful man I am so lucky to call my husband, is able to receive the treatment he needs without stressing about the medical expenses and bills.

All funding will be put towards the costs of chemotherapy, medications and covering essential bills (rent, household bills) during his time off.

Stephen has spent his entire life helping others and to be able to give back would be such an amazing blessing.

Every dollar makes the difference and we appreciate absolutely any help we are able to receive.

Please keep Stephen in your thoughts and prayers.
