A fitness fanatic and arm wrestler has been rocked after doctors found a cancerous tumour in his brain.
Jason 'Levi' Holley, 44, had for months felt a crippling pain down one side of his body and doctors were unable to diagnose him.
But they eventually found the tumour and discovered it was inoperable.
"I have inoperable brain cancer. I plan to live with cancer, not die from it," the arm wrestler, of New Zealand, said.
"I’ve had plenty of fights on my hands over the years and I’ve won all of them.
"For those who have been part of my journey all these years, thank you. The journey continues."
Jason has been in and out of hospital since the September diagnosis.
The actor now faces gruelling chemotherapy and radiation.
Doctors, though, have warned him other treatment options not yet available in New Zealand.
He wants to travel internationally to find the relevant help.
His GoFundMe page to help raise funds for this has already helped Jason reach the £7,000 mark ($ Aust. Dollars 13,000).
"No procedure is off the table," the webpage reads.
The athlete also intends to sell his car, possessions and even a prized Batman costume to fund his treatment.
Brain tumours are growths of cells in the brain which multiply in abnormal, uncontrollable ways.
The NHS says generally, around 15 out of every 100 people with a cancerous brain tumour will survive for five years or more after being diagnosed.
