Story
Hi There and thank you for visiting this Crowd Funding page...
Paul is just 52 years old, husband to my sister Ginnette, Dad to six children Daniel, Laura, Dominic, Kayleigh, Ben & Adam, grand father to TJ.
On the 24th July this year during a dermatologist appointment Paul was admitted to the hospital for further tests and diagnosed with Stage 4 'Poorly differentiated Oesophageal Carcinoma' with metastasis in the Bones, Lymph nodes, Skin and Adrenal Gland the following day. He has now been told it is too far advanced for any treatment and it is expected he only has 6 - 8 weeks left with his family. We are all understandably, shocked and utterly devastated by this diagnosis.
With a bit of persuasion we have managed to get Paul to draw up a bucket list. It's by no means extravagant, comprising of 5 simple items, 2 of which have already been granted. The final three are as follows:
1. To finally have his own garden shed so that he can finally put his sign 'Grumpy's Shed' up. When he's passed he wants the kids to use it as their own special space.
2. He would like to attend a Comic Con event.
3. He would like to attend a Radio Ham event.
As I'm sure you can all appreciate, time is of the essence in making these final hopes a reality. That's why we have turned to Crowd funding and hope that with the support of family, friends and with the power of Facebook we can make these last few things a reality. We are VERY grateful for any and every donation given (however small) and for all the shares of this page made on behalf of Paul. If you can help in any other way please don't hesitate to get in touch. Many Thanks Emily x

7 years agoHi guys... Just wanted to say a MASSIVE thank you for all the messages, donations, likes and shares that have been made for Paul...with Cash donations we have reached, in fact exceeded the total... Tim and I have ordered the shed and we will have it erected tomorrow! We will need to have a think about what to do with the remainder of the funds as it seems highly unlikely that Paul will be able to leave the home now as sadly his condition has deteriorated. We will however ensure it is used for Paul in some way. We will update you soon x
