Story
I heard of Chris' story through my Dad and immediately wanted to do something to help towards his funding. Chris is only 22 and devastatingly battling cancer for the third time. Now Chris is fundraising for treatment abroad.
His story can be found here: http://chriscarberry.co.uk
Me and Phil (mainly me) are terrible at running but if me putting myself through 10k in May can raise some money to help Chris then I have no excuse not to!
Thanks so much if you have anything spare to support, every little helps :)
Section taken from Chris' fundraising page
"After battling a rare form of bone cancer not once, but twice. In October 2017 Chris was sadly rediagnosed with oestosarcoma for the third time.
Devastatingly, this time around the cancer has come back with a vengeance. Scans have shown chris has two confirmed tumours locating up against his bowel and prostate in the soft tissue, and other possible ones are seen to be locating around his ribs and shoulder.
Chris has immediately started a grueling regime of chemotherapy at Clatterbridge Cancer Centre in order to control and shrink the tumours enough for surgery. Due to the unlikeness of this happening, his best hope of survival is through alternative treatments and clinical trials abroad that cannot be funded for on the NHS.
The urgency for this treatment is critical in giving chris the best chance of survival. Chris has not been given the luxury of time due to the severity of his relapse and the aggression his cancer is showing.
Currently we have just months to raise a significant amount to get the ball rolling and to get chris in to treatment as soon as possible. "
