Thanks for visiting my Just Giving page.
Could I ask that you stop for one minute and think about children with
cancer...
In October last year our son Tomas was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic
Leukaemia (ALL), cancer of the blood. To add insult to injury, Daniel, Tom's twin brother
was also diagnosed as a carrier of ALL, with his blood containing the
pre-Leukaemic clone cells - we wait and hope that he won’t develop the disease.
Leukaemia has changed our lives forever. To put our five year old boy through
such stress, pain and suffering tugs at our heart strings every day. As we look at other healthy children we
ask ourselves, why us? That said, we are not alone; in attending countless hospital visits I meet many other children and families
consumed with the same worry of cancer, each trying to understand the enormity
of their situation.
Tomas is such a great inspiration to me, he is very accepting and rarely complains.
So in support of my son and the many other children
with cancer I will enter the Great South
Run to raise as much money as possible for my chosen charity - CLIC
Sargent. This is just my way of contributing to the research of childhood cancer and perhaps in some small way helping families pull through. Please click on the link and read about the fantastic help and support they provide to families and children touched by cancer.

Dig deep into your pockets and sponsor me - a pound or fifty pounds all will be
gratefully received.
All the best,
Paul
