Bruce has papilliary renal cell cancer type 2

Hawke's Bay

I'm hoping to raise funds for my soon to be brother in law whom has papillary renal cell cancer type 2. Any help would be appreciated. This is his story as follows. In July 2016 he had his first kidney bleed, he was scanned and told he had two growths on right kidney. In September 2016 he had more scans and was told by specialist they were benign growths. In April 2017 he had his third bleed and was referred to the urology specialist group. He then had surgery on 6th July 2017 removing his right kidney but found shocking news. He had papillary renal cell cancer type 2 which is a very rare form of kidney cancer. He had to take six weeks off work and then returned to work on 21st August doing minimal hours. He then started getting terrible abdominal pain and returned to A& E for more scans and found his lymph nodes in abdomin had become enlarged. There was several changes to medications to control pain. The oncologist has suggested radiation therapy which will begin on the 14th of December and he will need approximately 3-6 weeks off work with no income .

Bruce and his Fiancée are getting married on January 20th 2018 so to help them celebrate their special occasion and help with their living costs mortgage etc, we are asking those who feel inclined to take a moment and donate if their heart tells them to.

We appreciate any help given to them. Thankyou
