Peter was recently diagnosed with two brain tumours, both Glioblastoma, the most notorious forms of brain cancer causing him severe memory loss and confusion.
Currently looked after by his elderly parents George & Christina from Nafplion, Greece, we have created this fund for those who wish to support the family in his care.
Two recent craniotomies saw the removal of one tumour, yet the other remains.
This tumour is planted deep in the back of his brain and will require a different approach.
He is currently recovering post surgery and is regaining his memory and self-sufficiency.
The Neurosurgeons commented that they rarely see similar patients recover the way Peter has.
The prognosis of the second tumour is not far away, and we will use this page and Facebook to keep everyone informed of his progress.
The family would like to thank everyone for their prayers and messages.
For those who would like to send a short video to Peter, we are happy for you to post it on these pages.
Please note that we kindly ask you to send a happy video rather than asking how he is or about everything that has happened. Just be yourself and talk to him like you would normally, as this positivity will do him a world of good.
In the same way, we ask everyone that instead of phoning the family, to message instead. Talking to family members and friends will be very emotional, and the family already has felt the love from everyone!
These events have been quite sudden, and we are unsure as to what the future holds for treating the remaining tumour and Peter's recovery in general.
So to ensure Pete can just focus on his recovery, his brother, Eugene, will be managing all funds donated to this GoFundMe page on Pete’s behalf.
Below is a photo of Pilot Michalis, Eugene, Peter & Dr Machilids doing what they do best in Greece - helping people and saving lives.
For 20 years, Peter and his brother Eugene spent endless nights helped injured and sick people in Greece, getting air ambulances and helicopters in the air to evacuate patients to suitable hospitals or back home.
We think now is time we take care of Peter!
