Club: Quins Festival of Rugby for Fintan

by

Just over 15 months ago, Fintan Hilyard was playing rugby for Belfast Harlequins 1st XV when he collapsed with a suspected hernia.

Tragically the diagnosis was Stage 4 Metastatic Melanoma. Fintan has battled heroically over the last 15 months with the help of the NHS. This has included in participating in a clinical trial in Newcastle. Unfortunately the treatment has not been successful.

Fintan and his family have heard about a new treatment available in Frankfurt, Germany. This involves conventional cancer treatment along with natural methods, particularly innovative hyperthermia. Patients come from all over the world to visit the clinic run by Dr. Herzog. Fintan wants to go. Unfortunately the cost cannot be paid by the NHS and the treatment is very expensive
