Help Richard Battle Cancer
Asking for support to assist the Russell Family.
Rolleston, Canterbury
Richard, who is a Dad to 3 beautiful children - Xavier 3, Lochlan 8 and Aria 10- has a terminal diagnosis of Stage 4 Melanoma of the lungs and brain at 44 years old.
It has taken a long time to arrive at this diagnosis and, as a result, he is only just starting his treatment journey which involves the administration of a cocktail of immunotherapy drugs. The hope is that this will give Richard more precious time, and, give his young children a chance to build more memories.
Richard's illness has meant he has not been able to work full-time since November 2023. In April he became so unwell that he had to give up work altogether. Michaela, Richard's wife, has become his full-time caregiver.
Any support will be much appreciated to help Richard's battle with cancer, gifting him some extra time with his family.
Please consider sharing this post as another way of showing your support.
THANK YOU!
