Hi guys

 

I am not normally one for asking people to spend money on charitable things for people they don't even know, however, on this occasion its personal.

 

A very, very good friend of mine, Dom, 34 from Derby has stage 4 secondary bowel cancer and has basically 6-12 months to live unless he can raise an initial 100k for treatment in Germany - as the UK doesn't offer the treatment he needs. 

 

His fundraising is only a week in and he already has over 21k raised. His appeal has reached BBC Derby, whom discussed this on their breakfast show yesterday (13/07/16) and we have also reached out to Derby County FC and a number a local celebs/footballers on Twitter who have also shared the link to his page. 

 

This post is more to share his fundraising page and if anyone can spare a few quid to help save a life, we will all be eternally grateful .

 

The page can be found here:

We all spend a few quid on a coffee and a snack most days, perhaps people could spare that for Dom just for one day. 

 

Sorry to beg, and admin, if this breaches forum rules please remove. i am just trying to get as many people to see this as possible.

 

Thanks again

 

Chris

Sorry its not much (the exchange rate hurts a bit), I lost my wife to exactly the same a couple of years ago, they only found her at stage 4, she was only 45.

 

Hard road ahead but very best wishes from here

So Dom is a Derby lad and derby county fan... We asked Derby for some items to auction off. They gave us 1 pair of match tickets and said we were not allowed to bucket collect at a game as charity allocation is full.

 

We contacted FC Barcelona and they have said they will donate a signed Leo Messi shirt to auction off no qualms!

 

If any has the chance to spare a few quid please read the link https://www.gofundme.com/doit4dom

 

Thanks all.
