Blood cancer stops for nothing.
It certainly didn’t care that young dad Pat had a family and a baby on the way. It crashed into his life and overnight, turned his world upside down with a shock diagnosis.
Pat was rushed to hospital straight away for urgent treatment, leaving everything behind – his home, his job, even his family.
Please give a gift today, so people like Pat don't have to face blood cancer alone.
His partner Rinnae was desperate to be with him, terrified of their family being separated. She was scared Pat would have to face months of treatment alone, away from her and from Pat's seven-year-old stepson, Xavier.
Your gift today will give families a place to stay together in Leukaemia Foundation accommodation. It will mean parents and children aren't ripped apart; families have a safe and supportive place to be together; and people like Pat have all the support they need.
“It was a lifeline. Without that apartment, our family would’ve been split up –at the time when we most needed to be together. Pat would’ve been all alone.” - Rinnae
