Not sure if you are aware of this but a surgeon by the name of Chris O’Brien passed away this morning in Sydney as a result of an aggressive brain tumour.
Chris was a prominent cancer specialist who specialised in head and neck cancers at Sydney’s Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, he was a leader in his field and renowned for not only his medical skill but his bedside manner. He was a regular on Channel 9’s RPA series.
He was to be honoured this coming Monday with an Officer of the Order of Australia, for his contribution to medicine.
A short time ago Chris established a specialist cancer treatment centre at the RPA hospital called Lifehouse, www.lifehouserpa.org.au.
Lifehouse’s goal is, “…to transform the treatment of cancer and bring hope to the lives of cancer patients, their carers and families.”
Chris was one of this country's real heros, right up there with our WWI & WWII diggers. A real hero, moreso than the usual sporting idols we hold up as role models, Chris was the real mcoy.
Please, if you can make a donation to Lifehouse to ensure his dream is realised.
