Help for Paul Lawrence

Donation protected

In 2010 Paul was diagnosed with Chordoma, spinal cancer. He was forced to undergo life saving & life changing surgery to remove 3 vertebrae from his spine.

Over the next few years Paul underwent multiple surgeries for tumour reoccurrences & for breakdowns in the hardware installed to keep him alive.

Eventually in late 2014 Paul underwent radiotherapy, a Mega Dose of radiotherapy as described by the doctors who administered it.

Now Unfortunately Paul is left with the devastation caused by the treatment. For the past year he has been living with broken hardware & broken bones in his back. Repair or any surgery at all within the next year at least is not an option, the osteonecrosis caused by the radiation means there is nothing to fix to any longer.

After defying all medical expectations Paul tried returning to work three times in the past several years, only to be side lined again by operations & repairs.
Now Paul is unable to care for myself and the ongoing costs of his health has forced his partner back to work.

The Past 7 years have cost him everything financially, No more savings and ALL SUPER went on medical expenses years ago. Paul literally can not afford the necessities his health requires and his health is suffering as a consequence.

It's truely a sad indictment on our society when someone who has contributed so fully throughout life is put into this position of needing assistance with little support.

Please help if you can to give Paul and his family  relief and better quality of life. 

Thank you
