Coreys Treatment Fund

  • Quick Update

      21 February 2023

    Hi All,

    Apologies it's been a while between updates, there's been alot going on!

    Corey completed his two weeks of Radiation in Auckland without any complications and has now had four Keytruda treatments (many thanks again for everyones contributions to make this available). But in an unwelcome development, following some increasing hip pain a new tumour was discovered in some bone. To manage this he has just undergone a total hip replacement, and is recovering well from this surgery. This will be followed up with radiation treatment to the area.

    There are still a few more keytruda doses (number 5 this week) required before a restaging scan in about 6-8 weeks and there will be a clearer view then as to how effective keytruda has been.

    Thanks again,

    Hope everyone is keeping safe and doing ok after the recent natural disasters

    Amy

    Check out Coreys Outfit of the Day/next few days, Today he kicked off his 2 weeks lung radiation in Auckland focused on large lesions.

    Other update notes:

    - Keytruda is every 3 weeks in Wellington via IV, so 2nd one is fast approaching.

    - There will be a PET scan in about 12 weeks to see how treatment has impacted things.

    - So far he has had some keytruda side effects but at the 'minor' end of things - lets hope it stays that way 🤞

    Thanks again to everyone for their generosity and well wishes,

    Amy

    What an incredible effort so far team 🤩, thank you will never be enough!!

    Thanks to everyone's quick support though, Corey has been able to get the ball rolling immediately with the immunotherapy and officially started the Keytruda treatments yesterday!

    Kia Ora Team,

    Firstly, I just wanted to say I cannot thank each and everyone of you enough, it has been incredibly overwhelming seeing all the donations and messages continuously flowing in.

    While we've been raising the funds Corey's been having appointments and can confirm both the Radiation & Keytruda are both booked in and will be started in coming weeks!

    We are just so grateful for what's been achieved already, the donations, the messages, we are so thankful for it all.

    Lets keep the momentum going,

    Amy 💖
