Gary’s Cancer Journey
Gary was diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer in late 2021, at the age of 34. Gary’s diagnosis came as a complete shock to everyone, especially him and his wife Lizzy. After years of leading an active and healthy lifestyle (albeit with a few pizzas thrown in…) no one ever expected that Gary was about to be given such devastating news.
How can you help?
Bevacizumab is a cancer treatment drug, also known by its brand name Avastin. It is an anti-angiogenesis treatment which is administered alongside standard treatments. The trouble is, Avastin is not available on the NHS and costs up to £2000 per cycle.
