Miranda Giles hasn't added a story.
Colin was diagnosed with stage IV oesophageal cancer with metastasis in the liver just before this Christmas 2014. He has already had his first lot of chemotherapy which has made him quite ill and landed him back in hospital but he is determined to fight this darn thing and as his partner I am determined too.
We have come up against a tricky problem! The question of 'how are we going to survive financially?' That is why I am putting this FundRazr out there for any help from our friends/family or anyone else that can contribute to our mounting medical bills and day to day living expenses.
I am working part time, the rest of the time I am looking after our 11 year old son and Colin. We are unable to claim any help or benefits as we have only lived in Spain for 4.5 years and haven't had enough work to claim.
Colin needs building up as he has lost a huge amount of weight due to not being able to eat properly for some time, the protein drinks alone are over 100€ for just 24. I am currently jumping through a lot of hoops to get him a medical card here, once we have that, the drinks will be at a minimal cost, but there is a lot of red tape! Other medical expenses and general basic living costs are mounting up fast.
Please, if anyone can help us out, no matter how big or small, it will be enormously appreciated.
