Ellie, Richard and Christopher would like to invite you to help raise money for the Neuro Intensive Care Unit at St Georges Hospital in memory of Tom.

Tom suffered a sudden and unexpected bleed into the brain on 29th April 2012. He was taken to the Neuro ITU at St Georges Hospital where he was treated and looked after until he passed away peacefully on the 6th May.

The staff on the Neuro ITU looked after Tom as if he was one of their own. They showed compassion, dignity and tenderness through out his stay on the unit, and provided invaluble support to me through the hardest week of my life.

Tom was a truly wonderful person and as well as being my most loving husband he was also my best friend. I miss him more that I could ever have imagined. He was the most fantastic daddy to Richard and Christopher and we had the greatest times together as a family. We have many wonerful memories to help us through the difficult and sad times that lie ahead and ask you to help us to honour those memories by donating to the Neuro ITU.

We would like to raise £20,000 for an infra red spectroscopy machine. This is a machine that monitors brain oxygenation and it is hoped that it will help doctors manage a complication known as vasospasm. Vasospasm can cause further brain damage following a spontainous bleed into the brain and sadly as with Tom is often fatal. It is hoped that this piece of equiptment will allow a better outcome for patients who suffer bleeds into the brain. So please give generously, so that we can help the Neuro ITU unit improve the outcome for other patients who are unfortunate enough to also suffer an unexpected brain haemorrhage.
