I’m 'stamping' all over cancer, please support me
My F-I-L was diagnosed with advanced Cancer of the Oesophagus in October last year. He is 57 years young. At the time he was told he had 3 months to live without treatment or a year to live with treatment. He is currently 3 months into the 12, the first round of chemo was unsuccessful, he has just had the first lot of his second round. Unfortunately we have just been informed that the cancer is too advanced and there is nothing more that can be done. Advanced Oesophageal Cancer: Most people with advanced oesophageal cancer live for between 3 to 12 months after their cancer is diagnosed. Around 4 out of 100 people (4%) live for 5 years or more. I want to raise money to help Cancer Research UK find suitable treatments to increase survival chances and times. Please find it in your heart to donate to this worthy cause, even just a £1 can go a long way to help beat this horrific illness.
