Story
My story. In 2018 I had a Whipple procedure also known as a (Pancreaticoduodenectomy)that we were hoping would be a non cancerous tumour, however this was not the case. I went on to have a number of complications, a collapsed lung, numerous infections, perforated bowel and sepsis on a couple of occasions. I am now undergoing Chemotherapy, Radiotherapy along with the addition of a stent put in due to my Liver not functioning.
I am trying to raise funds to help with travelling to various hospital appointments, hundreds of miles away.
I am due to have major surgery this month, but this is dependent on the availability of a bed, due to Covid.
Any funds raised will be used to travel for stem cell transplant which can't be done in this country.
Many thanks.
Update: I have been given sad news today. The operation I was supposed to have, cannot go ahead as planned. They have found that the cancer is in my hips, this means I have to start intensive chemotherapy to try to shrink the tumour. My option now is to have my stem cells to be harvested, then to transplant the good cells at a later date once I get the go ahead. Unfortunately, this cannot be done in the UK.
