Angelika, Bill, Jason and Kate will be running the British 10k London Run on the 12th July 2009 in memory of Saskia.

Saskia was diagnosed with severe Aplastic Anaemia in December 2007. She battled through 3 bone marrow transplants, severe infections, went through chemotherapy, radiation treatment and stayed in hospital for over 6 months. The Edward's Trust supported our family through this period with free accommodation and parking. A support which enabled us to be close during this very difficult period. Saskia was taken from us in February 2009 at the age of 3 years. She had an infection that was too strong for her weak immune system to fight. Saskia was a very brave and very special angel; her sunshine is deeply missed.   

Our fundraising target is £1,406.09 - Saskia would have celebrated her 4th birthday on 14/06/09.      

Please sponsor us so that we can help the Edward's Trust continue to provide life changing support.
