    Chemo is set to start on 21 July and will continue every 2 weeks for the next 6 months.

    Dad's maintaining his weight at least since spending 5 days on a feeding tube in hospital at the start of July for severe dehydration and starvation.

    Hopefully this is going to work, but we still thank those who have donated towards Keytruda, as that is our end goal.

      16 July 2020

    We've removed the goal for donations as every single amount helps.

    Hi again, dad's been scheduled to get a port fitted into his chest on 06 July and to start chemotherapy on 07 July.

    Here's to hoping that this will be a success.

    Here's a picture of him with my niece when she got married on 14 December 2019.

  • Richard's back home.

    After a week or so in hospital, Richard has returned home. He now has to learn to either eat or drink only 50ml per hour. It's difficult but he's determined.

    This is what 50ml of oats porridge looks like.
