Iʼve raised £7,879 to help our brother Chris Carter get life changing immunotherapy treatment.
- Taunton, UK
- Funded on Tuesday, 27th August 2019
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
Our brother Chris (Carter) has recently been diagnosed with Stage 4 oesophogeal cancer which has spread to his liver and lymph nodes which we have been told is inoperable. Sadly the outlook is not good with the treatment that is offered in the UK.
We are currently hoping to raise money for life saving immunatherapy which is extremely expensive and not offered by the NHS hence this page asking for your much needed help.
Chris is married to Lynda and they have 2 children, Bridie and Jack. The photo above was only taken just before his devastating diagnosis. Chris served in the Royal Navy as an electronics engineer and is a Falklands veteran. He also was a well respected policeman who served his community for over 20 years in Bristol and Taunton.
We are so desperate to help Chris who we can't imagine life without. He's so far been very positive after the initial shock of his diagnosis and has always been the life and soul of the party and is our family comedian.
The money raised will go towards the much needed life saving treatment that Chris so desperately needs. Any amount, large or small is so gratefully received on behalf of family and of course Chris.
Thank-you from all of us.
Dan, Siobhan, Helen, James and Mum.xxxxx

6 years agoAs you are all no doubt aware, Chris sadly lost his battle with oesophageal cancer on the 7th September 2019 with his family by his side. We are all totally devastated & we can’t imagine life without him. He will be so terribly missed by us, his family and all of his friends. We never got to use the donations you so generously gave for future treatment so we ask you to make a decision on either taking the money back with our love, for you to use for something happy, or to donate to Dr Chong’s Oesophageal Cancer Research....cont:-
