Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I am fundraising for Luca (Via Tree of Hope) a 4 year old boy from the Newport area, who's strength is humbling. This young boy has already faced and overcome more challenges than any adult will probably face in their entire lifetime. Luca's bravery is truly inspiring and I hope by fundraising for him I can make some contribution towards enriching his life. Here's Lucas story:
"Luca is a beautiful 4 year old who was struck down with Meningococcal Septicaemia in early January 2012 and his life changed forever…This horrendous disease ravaged every part of his body in hours and left him fighting for his life! With less than a 3% chance of survival Luca pulled through however he was not unscathed…
Luca lost both of his legs and all of his tissue, some muscle and skin below his hips. He has massive skin and tissue and muscle loss across his arms and shoulders.
We are raising funds to cover the lifetime costs of specialist prosthetics not available on NHS giving Luca every chance to excel in every aspect of his future"
Thank you for your generosity and I'm looking forward to really challenging myself to help Luca.
Thanks Beth :-) xx
