We miss her so much and we don’t think we will ever come to terms with how much she suffered in those last few weeks.</span></span></p>

For Bubby’s full story see </span><a href="http://www.justgiving.com/esmecarter"><span style="color: blue;"><span style="font-size: small;">www.justgiving.com/esmecarter</span></span></a><span style="font-size: small;"> . We now want to help other children with HLH, so they don’t have to suffer like Bubby.</span></span></p>

We are trying to reach our target of $100,000 – so there’s still some way to go. Please, please help me raise money for HLH, by doing so we’re giving other children with this cruel disease a chance. </span></span></p>
