I have been diagnosed with Prostate Cancer and following discussions with my doctor, I have decided to do the surgery using the Robotic-assisted radical laparoscopic prostatectomy method. This is not available in Jamaica so I will have to go to Florida to have the surgery done.

I wish to thank everyone in advance for your kind support, no matter how small. As we all say

"One one cocoa fill basket"

or

"Every Mickle Meck a Muckle"

I am trusting there will be an overflow because I wish to set up a fund with the "Double Portion" to be able to provide for other persons who are in need of medical assistance.


Let my challenge be a blessing to others!

This campaign is ongoing at the request of friends who have not had a chance to donate so I trust you will be able to provide some support, not only to me, but to others also.

Please see below other donation options:

1. Persons with a US Bank Account: Use ZELLE to my email address to send the funds: [email protected]

2. If you have a PayPal account send to the following email address:

[email protected]

3. In Jamaica make payment at the eBiz Centre Ltd., 2 Trafalgar Road, in the Small Business Association complex

4. Call the eBiz Centre for banking information at 876 978-3250

5. Call Carolien and she will provide an option for direct deposit either to a Jamaican bank account or a US bank account

eMail: [email protected]

Cell - USA: 954 612-8345

We will manually add your donation to the page where you will see it reflected as "Raised Offline"

May God continue to bless you.

Ralph Bryan and Carolien Aikman
