My Story
My Dad died last November from Mesothelioma. He was terrified but also so brave, right till the end. Mesothelioma is an asbestos related disease. Which affected my Dad's lungs. Initially, the lining of his right lung. He was told that an operation could not be done because of where it was and that Chemotherapy would not help to cure it. He was so brave to decide not to go ahead with the Chemotherapy. He went on to live his life and enjoy life for as long as his illness would let him and with the support from friends and family, he did just that. I hope in the future there may be a cure for this debilitating disease. So please donate whatever you can for the present and the future, thanks, Kerry xXx
