Help Get Jed Home From Sydney

For those unfamiliar with Jed’s harrowing journey, it began on June 5th 2017 when he was diagnosed with a brain tumour and was immediately rushed to surgery. From then on in he was faced with constant set backs, side effects and multiple major surgeries attempting to remove the tumour. After battling hard he was given the news that the cancer had gone into remission, only to be told merely weeks later that it had come back more aggressively.

Since then every treatment available to him in Adelaide had little to no effect in battling the tumour. As a result the family made the difficult decision to fly to Sydney and meet with surgeon Charlie Teo in a last resort attempt to remove the tumour. The surgery took place just days before Christmas and although it was a success, once again Jed was faced with countless repercussions including a tracheotomy surgery that was needed to allow him to breathe.

As a result it is extremely difficult for the McDonald family to return to Adelaide and may cost them up to 60k to return with Jed to the comfort of their home. With the Surgery being before Christmas, Jed, Louise and Giles have been away from family and friends over Christmas and New Year’s, so the opportunity for them to get back to Adelaide to be surrounded by family and friends would be appreciated beyond words, especially with his 19th birthday coming up soon. If you could please make even the slightest contribution to help that would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
