Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My name is Jordan. I'm 14 years old and I'm from Leeds. I have MEN 2A, a type of thyroid cancer that can never be cured.

I was diagnosed with the condition in 2007,  when I was just four years old. 

My mum, Denise, also has the condition, which is hereditary..

The condition has also been passed on to my 11-year-old sister, Emma, and we've both had to undergo major surgery to remove our 
thyroid.

We both have to have regular blood tests and cancer screenings at Leeds General Infirmary.

To help us get a break from the condition my mum and dad decided to apply for a place for me on Caudwell Children’s annual Destination Dreams holiday to Disney World, in Florida.

Caudwell Children is a national charity that provides
practical and emotional support to disabled children and their families.

The charity created Destination Dreams in 2007, to give 25
children, with life threatening conditions the opportunity to experience a
‘Dream’ holiday to Disney World.

I was so happy when I was selected for the holiday, I couldn't believe it.

But then the charity told us that there was a funding shortfall and now all the families are trying to raise money to make sure that the holiday happens. 

It will be so good if we can go because the families are really well looked  after.

The charity provides a team of doctors and nurses who are available
24/7 to look after the children. They also take along over 40 volunteers to help families around the theme parks.

Because of this it costs a lot of money to pay for the holiday and my dad  says it's £10,000 per family.

The holiday is really important for my dad as well as the doctor recently told him that he has multiple sclerosis. He has to use a wheelchair now. 

Please support my appeal and help make my dream come true of going on holiday to Disney World, in Florida.

Thank you!
