Help David Cooke with his cancer treatment

Donation protected
Dad is pretty crook. He has a type of cancer called 'Non Hodgkins lymphoma'. He's been through several rounds of chemo which have, unfortunately, not had the desired outcome. His body is riddled with cancer.
As a last ditch effort he has been accepted into a fairly new immune therapy called CAR T cell therapy. Thankfully this is covered by our amazing health system, nevertheless, because the cancer is very aggressive he will need to go on another type of chemo to slow it's spread long enough for the immune therapy to be processed and delivered to him.
This other type of chemo is not covered by our health service so dad will have to cover that cost. The estimated cost of the chemo is around $15,000.
The remainder of the funds we are seeking to raise will go towards all the other expenses of traveling to Sydney and having someone stay with him for the duration of the treatment.

There are some serious complications that can occur as a result of the treatment, death being one of them, yet Dad is not afraid to die. He knows he is safe in God's hands and where he is going. He is grateful though that this treatment has been made available to him and he wants to give it a crack. He'd like to see if it might prolong his life so he can enjoy his family and grandkids a bit longer.

Hi, I'm Danny (David's son). I'm writing this on behalf of dad.
Thanks for helping us out


Should there be any left over funds we will donate them to a worthy cause.
