My story

 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I'm going off food for a while (*see below) and I had the idea of getting people to sponsor me and giving the money to charity. The Dream Factory is like the 'Make a Wish Foundation', but less well known and on a smaller scale so I thought it might be a good idea to give the money to them!

Knowing that people have sponsored me will hopefully help me to keep going when the going gets tough and I am surrounded by people eating things (like all that yummy chocolate at Easter!)

Thanks for dropping by and, Peace out!

*For four weeks starting before Easter I wasn't able to eat any food at all, and wasn't able to drink anything but boiled water and an amino-acid liquid formula (which tastes really gross by the way!) because the doctors think that the illness I have may be caused by an allergy in my gut.
I'm now allowed to eat plain chicken, rice, broccoli, grapes and corn, and will slowly start introducing other foods one at a time. But I still have to drink the formula...!
