The only way to extend Grandpa's life is immunotherapy.
Unfortunately, the hospital does not want to cooperate with this. Not because it wouldn't help, but because they only give it in combination with chemotherapy. However, the chemotherapy is bad for grandpa's heart. The chemo would shorten his life rather than prolong it, given the side effects. There you are......
After years of being a caregiver for his wife (parkinson's) who passed away 2 years ago, shortly thereafter he was diagnosed with esophageal cancer. Just when he finally had some time to do some fun things himself. Meanwhile, Grandpa has had 2 radiation treatments and a stent has been placed in his esophagus. Unfortunately, the cancer doesn't just give up. That's why we are making an ultimate attempt to raise 22,000 euros for immunotherapy. We realize that there is a very good chance that this amount will not be reached. Therefore, we have agreed with Grandpa that if we do not succeed, all the money will go to the Princess Maxima Center for Oncology in Utrecht (children's hospital). This way we (and you of course) are sure that the money will go to the right place no matter what! We will post the transfer in due time on the facebook page.
Who will help us? Every small donation is highly appreciated :)
