Dad faces terminal cancer without 'expensive treatment'

A dad-of-two faces developing terminal cancer without "expensive treatment".

Justin Rogers, 48, has been diagnosed with colon cancer which has progressed to metastatic liver cancer. Despite receiving NHS treatment, the former Royal Marines Commando has been advised this will have a serious effect on his liver and cannot continue this treatment long-term.

But stopping the treatment means Justin's cancer will become terminal, LancsLive reports. There are two alternative therapies that could help Justin, but they are not available on the NHS. Now his close friends have rallied around to help raise the £100,000 needed for private treatment.
