Story
Baby Tony was 41 days old when he was rushed to hospital with 8 non accidental fractures and sepsis. Now a very happy 3 year old, he has a new family with 7 bothers and sisters and is a loving, adventurous little lad whose ambition is play football like his older brothers.
Unfortunately he was left with major life changing injuries - he is a double through the knee leg amputee, has no left hip socket, is deaf in one ear and has motor problems with both thumbs. We would like to raise some money to ensure he has all the disability equipment he needs both at nursery and at home.
My name is Lynne and I'm the cousin of Tony's new Mum but we are very close and I refer to Tony as my nephew, so much easier than adopted first cousin once removed!! The money that is raised will go into a bank account in his name and will be used for deposits and purchases on equipment need for Tony at home and nursery as you need to have two of everything as most equipment is too big and bulky to move around everyday. Thank you all so much for your donations or your shares xx

5 years agoWe are so humbled by everyone's generosity, you will all make such a difference to Tony's life. As many of you will know all disability equipment has a huge price tag on it. We want to and will give Tony the best life and anything he needs we will work to find a way. We are currently just about to undergo huge renovations to our home to make it totally Tony friendly with an extension for a downstairs wet room and his own bedroom and therapy room. Again thank you so much love Tony & Paula xx
