Many of you won't know that in April of this year Stefan was diagnosed with a grade 4 glioblastoma, a very aggressive and devestating brain tumour. It is a notoriously diffcult cancer to treat and progress in research is essential to changing the current prognosis for such tumours.
Sadly Dad lost his battle with his tumour yesterday, on the 19th June 2013. He is an inspiration to our family and will be missed every day xx
Every year around 9,100 people in the UK are diagnosed with a brain tumour. But they can sometimes be hard to treat and around 4,900 people lose their life to the disease every year. The good news is that, in children, brain tumour survival has almost doubled since the late 1960’s. But unfortunately less progress has been seen in adults. Cancer Research UK is a major funder of brain tumour research in the UK and we want to see a day when this disease is cured.
We've joined together to raise money for charity. You'll see our team fundraising target on the right. Your donation can really help us smash this goal
