Support Our Colleague in His Fight Against Cancer

Our dear colleague Mike Watson — a skilled and dedicated electrical technician in our research laboratory — is facing one of the toughest challenges of his life. He has recently been diagnosed with kidney cancer and is scheduled to undergo surgery in May 2026.

At the same time, his wife has been living with a long-term chronic illness that requires full-time care and constant medical attention. Both are around 65, and this difficult situation has placed an overwhelming emotional and financial strain on their family.

Despite everything, he continues to show incredible strength and dedication. He cares for his wife with unwavering commitment and still comes to work with focus and determination. Those who know him recognize his quiet resilience, kindness, and the vital role he has played in supporting our team over the years. He has always been someone others could count on — and now, he needs us.

We are raising funds to help ease his burden during this critical time. Your support will go toward:

* Medical expenses related to his surgery and treatment

* Transportation to and from the hospital

* Home care support for his wife

* Essential daily living costs

These contributions will allow him to focus on his recovery while ensuring his wife continues to receive the care she needs.

We are more than coworkers — we are a community. And in moments like this, we come together. He has spent years supporting others; now it’s our turn to stand by him.
