My story

Thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page, in memory of Sienna Skye Walsh, a beautiful angel who was so sadly taken from us on the 6th of December 2011. 

Sienna was the sweetest little girl with the biggest blue eyes, who brought joy and happiness not just to her family, but to anybody who was lucky enough to have met her during her amazing 2 years on this earth.

When Sienna became poorly, she was treated at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital, Liverpool, under the wonderful care of specialist Neurosurgeon Mr Conor Mallucci. Mr Mallucci successfully operated on Sienna to remove a tumour from her brain. Unfortunately however, after 3 long days at Alder Hey, Sienna’s struggle came to an end.

During these 3 days at Alder Hey Hospital, the love and strength that emanated from family and close friends who were present in her final hours was astounding and if Sienna took just a little of that love and strength with her on her journey, then we can take comfort in knowing that she is now in a very happy place.

In addition to the love and support of Sienna’s family and friends, the care and support provided by staff at Alder Hey Hospital was extremely humbling. To see so many families going through the most painful of times, especially so near to Christmas, was not easy, but the staff consistently eased that pain as much as possible.       

For this, we would like to say “Thank You”.

For three days, Sienna’s parents Amanda and Matt were able to stay with their beautiful girl, as they were provided with a room at Ronald McDonald House.

The House at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital keeps families together. Families can stay at the House from one night to six months or more, but whatever the duration, it gives them some much-needed privacy and allows poorly children to receive the love and comfort they need.

For this, we would also like to say a very big “Thank You”.
