Story

Thanks for visiting our Just Giving page.......so Emma, Jenny and Annje are taking part in our first running challenge at the Laganside 10K on 2nd September.   Anyone who knows them will know this is a big challenge, so any donation big or small will be greatly appreciated!!!

We are doing this for Annje's cousins, brave little boy Oscar Knox, who is battling an aggressive kids cancer, see his story below.... 

 

Oscar is fighting stage 4 neuroblastoma, an aggressive childhood cancer. Oscar needs immunotherapy treatment to help stimulate his immune system, so that Oscar's own body should be able to recognise and attack the neuroblastoma if it was to return. This is always a worry with this deadly disease, where the relapse rates are high. Oscar’s parents Stephen and Leona said, “Oscar is such a positive happy wee lad, he is always smiling and everyone who meets him falls in love with him. Despite what he is going though he always has a huge big smile on his face. The treatment abroad that Oscar needs costs as much as £250,000. We ask everyone to please do whatever they can to help give our son the chance of life, and ensure we get him the treatment he desperately needs.
