A LOVING husband will face his fears by jumping out of a plane to raise money to fund treatment for his cancer stricken wife.

The self confessed hater of heights, Jay Bolaky, will complete a 13,00ft skydive next month to raise money to fund private treatment for wife Debbie.

The 54-year-old had already beaten breast cancer, in 2014, when she was diagnosed with secondary brain cancer in October last year.

Doctors have also discovered cancer on Debbie’s liver.

Her condition is now terminal.

But husband Jay, who works at Colchester Council, is refusing to give up.

As a result of his research and fundraising, Debbie has already undergone a successful privately-funded operation to remove two of the eight lesions on her brain.

Together with his family and friends, the fundraisers have collected more than £13,000 towards a £100,000 target.

The money will be used to fund pioneering treatment, which is not available on the NHS, and can pass through the blood-brain barrier, a key obstacle when treating brain cancers.

The 42-year-old dad, of New Kiln Road, Colchester said: “People were telling us to go home and basically sort out lives out

“I wasn’t ready to let her go and she definitely wasn’t ready.

“She’s 54 years old, she’s got two children and a grandchild.

“Life is here now and we should be living it together.”

He added: “Friends and family have been absolutely amazing so far but I wanted to do something myself which would really make a difference and something which would really scare me.

“I absolutely hate heights and this is honestly not

going to be any fun for me to do.

“I am a complete scaredy cat but the point is, it is nothing compared with what Debbie is going through.”

Debbie was originally diagnosed with breast cancer in 2011.

Following numerous bouts of chemotherapy, as well as a left side mastectomy, she beat the disease three years later.

However, she was rushed to hospital in October last year, initially with stroke-like symptoms.

After a number of tests, the brain cancer was diagnosed.

Jay, whose own mum died from breast cancer in 2011, said: “We had been away on our first holiday after

everything and we’d had a brilliant time and suddenly she started speaking to me really funny on the sofa and I couldn’t understand what she was saying.”

“We couldn’t believe it. We thought it was beaten.

“My message to people with secondary cancer is, ‘it’s not the end’,
