Let's Help Little Stanley on His Cancer Journey

This fundraiser is organised by his Grandad, family and friends.

Stanley is 6 years old

At the beginning of December 2021, Stanley has gone from being diagnosed with possible migraines, to finding out he has a brain tumour then being admitted into Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) London, to having 1 operation to drain fluid off of his brain and then a 2nd operation the day after which took 13hrs to try to remove the tumour, but they were not able to remove all of it.

Following the tumour removal they received the results of Stanley biopsy, unfortunately it wasn't the news they wanted, Stanley has ependymoma (a rare type of brain cancer) 

His case went to a national board, a board of oncologists reviewed his file, biopsies, bloods, scans, lumber puncture results etc..... The plan moving forward was proton radiotherapy possibly chemotherapy as well.

He has now started active treatment. Chemo has begun.

Following 7 weeks of chemo, they will be told whether Manchester or Germany, are able to take Stanley for proton beam therapy (specialised radiotherapy) 

This will be the financial burden on the family – 7 weeks chemo in London, followed by 6 weeks Proton Therapy in Manchester or Germany, then back to London for 7 weeks chemo. This is just the start.

Living and visiting these hospitals will be financially draining.

There are also adaptations to Stanley’s home needed to provide a safe and comfortable environment for him.

Any extra will afford them some luxury in spending some quality time together with their son and their daughter, who is of course affected by this family trauma.

Please help us by donating anything you are able to afford. Any little helps.

Thank you
