Please help Lionel get the Non-Funded Cancer treatment he requires

Lionel Hopgood a former Canterbury Ram basketball player, a loving husband and father of two awesome children is playing the biggest game of his life and his opponent doesn't seem to lose often. But a with a little help from his team mates and supporters we can make sure he wins this one.

Lionel was diagnosed with bowel cancer late last year, he underwent surgery to remove the part of the bowel containing the tumor, the surgery was successful but unfortunately the cancer had already spread to his liver, he has had chemo therapy in the last four months which helped, but not enough to be able to perform the urgent surgery required to remove part of his liver that contains the cancer. The next play in this match is a medical treatment called SIRT which stands for Selective Internal Radiation Treatment, this treatment will hopefully stop the tumors growth which will then allow the removal of that part of the liver and give Lionel a chance to beat this.

SIRT is non-funded cancer treatment which has a cost of around $40,000, which includes getting Lionel up to Auckland for his treatment, if you can help by donating please do as every dollar counts.
