In many cases it is found on just one kidney but with Lua she had it on both her kidneys which was very serious. She had chemotherapy at Kingston Hospital and Great Ormond Street and in December last year she had an operation at GOSH. They removed some of one of her kidneys and had to leave the rest. The long and short of it was they have been able to leave her kidneys functioning and she no longer has to have chemo. We found out after the operation that the tumors she has left in her are no longer malignant which is fantastic news. They are continuing to monitor her very closely but things are looking very positive for Lua. We have recently heard that Lua&nbsp;will require more treatment to her remaining whole kidney. We pray that all goes well and her strength&nbsp;continues.</span></p> <p> <p><span style="font-size: 14px; color: #008080; line-height: 14px; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">My eldest son, Charlie (7) has had a non-malignant form of childhood cancer since he was 6 months old. He was referred to GOSH for assessment, treatment, help &amp; support and with our amazing friends and family they have been our rock throughout&nbsp;his long journey. When we last visited the specialist there was positive news of hope and so the next 5 years should bring us nearer the end.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 14px; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Therefore there are two charities that we have decided to support by raising money through our participation in the London to Brighton bike ride. These are Momentum and Great Ormond Street Childrens Charity. They offer fantastic support&nbsp;<span style="font-size: 14px; margin: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: transparent; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; padding: 0px;">and&nbsp;<span style="font-size: 14px; margin: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 18px; font-family: Helvetica, HelveticaNeue, Arial, sans-serif; background-color: transparent; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; padding: 0px;">help children and the families of children undergoing treatment for cancer and other serious conditions.</span></span></span></p> </p> <p><span style="color: #3366ff;"><a href="http://www.moment-um.org/"><span style="color: #2a42c6;">http://www.moment-um.org/</span></a></span></p> <p><span style="color: #3366ff;"><a href="http://www.gosh.org/"><span style="color: #2a42c6;">http://www.gosh.org/</span></a></span></p> <p><span style="color: #3366ff;">Thank you for your time and your support.&nbsp;</span>&nbsp;</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
