Story

Jerry, my extraordinary husband and Linus’s wonderful father passed away on Monday the 17th of July 2017. Jerry’s swift decline and ultimate death was caused by pancreatic cancer which had metastasised and made a bee line for his lungs with unusual rapidity and utter viciousness. 

In order to find some positivity at this unbelievable time, Linus and I invite you all, in memory of Jerry, to give donations to his friend Professor Charles Swanton (The Crick Institute and UCLH) who specialises in research of the lungs and whose team at this very moment is focusing on exactly what killed Jerry : voracious secondaries in the lungs . 

Please give  generously in Jerry's name to UCL Hospitals Charity .

The money will go straight to Charlie's laboratory and will help to further scientific prevention.

 Thank you so much .... our love, Barbara and Linus
