Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On Sunday 26th October i will be running the Bupa Great South Run in Portsmouth. It will be a very challenging 10 miles, but i am doing this to raise vital funds for a very special little Girl Ruby who is facing the biggest challenge of her little life. 

Ruby lives 5 doors down from me, here is her heartbreaking story, and the reason that i am raising money for her journey......

Ruby Laura is a very brave 2 year old little girl who lives in Rainham, Kent. She lives with her mummy, daddy and big brother Freddy. Rubys favorite things are babies, drawing, playing with her brothers toys, playing outside.
Ruby has recently been diagnosed with a rare form of childhood cancer called Neuroblastoma. Ruby has a large tumour starting in her abdomen going up her spine. Ruby has already undergone surgery in the form of a biopsy, and is currently undergoing treatment at the Royal Marsden Hospital. Neuroblastoma is a very aggressive form of cancer with a poor prognosis and a very high risk of relapse.
Should Ruby relapse the treatment in the UK is limited and the chance of Ruby surviving is pretty much non existent. There are new developments for relapsed Neuroblastoma patients in America that would increase Ruby's chance of survival. The NHS would not cover the cost of these treatments and therefor we are asking for your help.
Treatment abroad is very expensive and could cost hundreds of thousands of pounds. We need your help to raise funds to potentially save Ruby's life!

Ruby really is the bravest little princess i've ever seen, its heartbreaking for Mark and I to see her family so desperate to help her. So this is my way of not only helping Ruby, but also Vikki, Rob and Freddy by raising funds for their beautiful little girl. 

So i'm asking PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE donate as much or as little as you can to help Ruby Laura. I really do appreciate everyones support, i am running 10 miles to help a very poorly little girl, but she is the one who has the biggest journey ahead of her.
