A previously fit dad shockingly diagnosed with stage four cancer says he was left looking like the “Nightmare on Elm Street” after a horror reaction to chemotherapy left him too embarrassed to go to his young son’s cricket matches. He is now hoping to save his life with a ground-breaking vaccine.
Geoffrey Seymour, 41, a procurement specialist, loved playing tennis, basketball and cricket and had always been healthy until just before his 41st birthday when he began experiencing blood in his stool. Geoffrey was aware of this being a symptom for cancer from adverts on the television, so quickly went to his GP.
Geoffrey was diagnosed with stage four colorectal cancer, which had spread from his colon to his liver. The situation has been so severe and seemingly hopeless he likened it to “being wrapped in a paper bag that is on fire”.
