Story
Ryan O'Donnell has a rare, aggressive and resilient type of non-Hodgkin Lymphoma.
Unfortunately it has not responded to numerous types of chemotherapy or clinical trials and is unfortunately spreading really fast.
Ryan (Ryan0r) speaks about his condition here:
https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18766896
As part of the community of OcUK (http://www.overclockers.co.uk) we would like to help Ryan get to various locations across the UK (Manchester and Southampton) to investigate other possible clinical trials. If he is suitable, he will require to visit these clinics for regular treatment - we want to give him the best chance as possible to make those appointments and help him fight his cancer.
In the short period that Ryan was well, he was able to do a 5k for Bloodwise, a blood cancer research charity (details here: http://www.justgiving.com/Ryan-vs-Cancer) he would love to do more, but this is looking increasingly unlikely owing to the aggressive nature of his cancer.
Ryan needs our help to ensure he can get as much treatment as possible. I don't know Ryan, neither do many of you reading this page, but I think we can all spare a little bit to help him get to these clinics to give him a chance. Let's pull together as a community and help a fellow member who is in dire need.
Ryan has recently got engaged and they both need our help and support.
We are a very close community on OcUK and we love to help one another out - from simple computer problems, to more complicated relationship issues through to helping our members in their time of need such as now.
Thank you for your generosity.

7 years agoIt is with great sadness that I have to advise you that Ryan died this morning on the 5th April. His bravery and lighthearted approach to his disease was inspirational, and although not knowing him personally, I am utterly saddened by his death. I hope we were able to help him live out his final days with some positivity and comfort. Please hold your thoughts and prayers for his family and friends who have lost an incredible person. All the best Ryan, you are no longer in pain. Rest in peace.
