Story

Last year our Dad , John stone was diagnosed with Non alcholic liver disease , this is severe scarring of the liver causing Liver Cirrhosis and its through no fault of his own . In January 2018 he was told he would need a liver transplant in order to save his life but he would need to be healthy and fit in order to sustain such a big life threatening operation , he was sadly declined for the register in March this year due to his fitness levels but this only spurred him on, Dad got himself fit by changing his diet and attending the gym around 5 times a week despite severe fatigue being a major side effect of his illness. He was determined to improve his fitness and as a result he got placed on the register only 8 days ago on Tuesday 17th July and on Monday 22nd July @ 2.30 am we recieved a phone call to say a Donor was ready .. they had a Match !! We still cant believe it was so quick .. Dad was faced with the biggest challenge of his life and the Operation took place on Monday afternoon . After a Gruelling 9 hour operation im pleased to say the Operation was a huge success and dad is doing incredibly well .. we are immensley proud of him . Naturally like most wives our mum wants to be by his side every step of the way until he is fit enough to leave the hospital .. with this in mind we need to cover the expense of London Hotels , food and parking to allow our mum to spend time by our Dad, the prices in London for hotels are through the roof and as a result were hoping to raise anything we can to help them .. the parking alone for us is around £30-40 per day .. with no facilities to cook we are estimating the whole experience to cost between £2000-£3000 .. its not been easy for my parents to ask for help but mum had to give up work months ago to help dad and dad has been unable to work since last June , anything at all we can raise would make this experience a little less stressful .. Anything we raise and do not use for this alone will go direct to the Royal free hospital as a donation and you have my word on that, they are an incredible hospital ❤️

My parents are the most heart warming people you could ever met and never expect anything from others , if you have taken your time to read this then there is a high chance they have helped you at some point , anyone who knows them already knows how lovely and caring they are , they spend so much of thier time helping others and we would just like to help them a little .. please do not feel obligued but anything given will be more appreciated then we could ever say so the biggest thank you in advance ❤️With love , Robbie and Joanne
