'Our dad is the kindest, most hardworking family man you'll ever meet..'
The family of an East Belfast man diagnosed with incurable cancer has vowed to fundraise to access alternative treatment abroad.
"He spent over 25 years with Bombardier as an aircraft fitter in Belfast, along with taxi driving for 17 years. After beating pancreatic cancer a year ago, he was just starting to enjoy retirement with our mum Cathy. "Dendritic Cell Therapy is a breakthrough treatment in immunotherapy, and it has a remarkable success rate in treating cancer. Dendritic Cells are unique cells that help the immune system recognise and attack abnormal cells, like cancer cells. The purpose of Dendritic Cell Therapy is to mature and prepare the Cendritic Cells so that they can recognise cancer cells and activate specific immune cells to destroy them.
"I've had a lot of personal challenges to overcome, and my dad has been there every step of the way, holding my hand even when he didn't quite understand what I was going through. Now it's my turn to support him, and I'm asking for help. We've been through so much illness and grief within our family over the last three years, and we just need a miracle to get through this.
