A son has shared a heartbreaking video asking for the life-saving surgery his terminally ill father needs.
Brad Pugh’s father, who has terminal cancer, was promised a life-saving surgery but due to the coronavirus crisis, his father couldn’t find a hospital bed and his emergency cancer surgery was canceled.
Brad has now made a heartbreaking plea in an effort to get a hospital bed so his father can have life-saving surgery.
Brad’s father was told his surgery had been canceled due to the lack of hospital beds amid coronavirus crisis.
Brad has shared the heartbreaking video in an effort to save his father’s life.
He told his father was given just 12 months to live a couple of months ago but when they were told about the life-saving surgery, they had a hope to save their beloved father.
However, his surgery got canceled due to the lack of hospital beds.
He said: “For the last few weeks we have been travelling back and forth to Leeds hospital to make sure he had the right pre-ops and fitness tests and he passed them all.”
“Today we got a phone call from Leeds hospital to tell us his operation has been cancelled. It’s due to not being able to get him a bed.”
Brad said his father worked really hard all his life and paid taxes and this is what he got in return.
He said Boris Johnston said no emergency operations for cancer patients would be canceled but it’s not true as his father has been told he wouldn’t be operated because of lack of hospital beds amid coronavirus outbreak.
He now hopes the video goes viral so his father gets the surgery he was promised.
He urged everyone to like and share the video so his dad can have the surgery.
He said: “The reason for my video really is to see if we can get my dad his operation he deserves on Monday. Get this liked and shared and see if old Boris can pick it up and get my dad that bed so he can have his operation on Monday. Thank you.”
