Please note that this is a new account for the continuing campaign. This new GoFundMe account will not be charged fees so all funds raised will go into the fundraising pot. Update....treatment has started. Day 1 of chemoradiotherapy was delayed due to lost blood results and a 'missing' consultant oncologist at the hospital....reset the clock and here we go again. Please keep sharing xx Steve has gbm4 (Glioblastoma Multiforme grade 4) ...this is an aggressive and incurable brain cancer. Steve is my husband and the father of our 11 year old son, Reggie. Steve is kind, caring, empathic and loving. Steve is now unable to work and has had to surrender his driving licence due to the nature of his condition. On September 9th 2018, after he had been suffering from an 8 day migraine, he was admitted to the Acute Medical unit at Queen Alexandra hospital in Portsmouth following a CT scan that showed abnormalities in his right frontal lobe. After MRI scans it was revealed that the abnormalities were a high grade glioma tumour and he was referred to the Wessex Neurology Unit at Southampton general. On Monday 2nd October Steve had craniotomy performed by Mr Grundy at Southampton General which managed to remove the majority of the tumour 3.5cm wide from his right frontal lobe. It has now been confirmed that he also has a lower grade glioma in his left frontal lobe, next to his brain stem. Steve begins daily ChemoRadiotherapy on 26th November 2018 until 28th December 2018. He will have Christmas Day and Boxing Day off. GBM4 is terminal. There is no known cure as such. All treatment can do is slow down the growth and hopefully reduce the risk of secondary tumours being formed in the body. Alongside standard UK medical treatments there is now scientific evidence that using therapeutic ketogenic diets and supplementing with complementary therapies such as Amino Acids, Bacopa, Vitamin B16, Organic Turmeric with Cucumin, Denatured Organic Whey protein and other LEGAL products will attack the cancerous cells within the brain, thus making them more receptive to standard treatments. Please help. Please share. Thank You, Kerensa, Steve and Reggie xxx
