Great Midlands Fun Run · 10 June 2012

It's bewildering and unsettling for anyone going into hospital but especially for children and that is why we are a fundraising hospital. We raise funds to enhance the experience of our patients by providing state of the art medical equipment and facilities and creating a child-friendly environment.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

As you all know my Granddaughter Poppy Elise was born on February 10th 2010, a little munchkin at 8lb 10.5oz. Unfortunately we later learned that our little angel had a tumor in her throat which was preventing her from breathing. Poppy was soon moved to Birmingham Childrens Hospital.

It was a traumatic few weeks for us all, especially little Poppy who through her procedures and time in intensive care remained a little fighter!

It was the wonderful Dr Pearman who operated on Poppy and he successfully removed a 4cm tumor which was connected to her adanoids, tonsils and down her throat. In his 30 years at the hospital, this was only the 2nd similar case he'd seen.

Poppy is now a very healthy happy little girl, full of life bringing joy and smiles to everyone she meets!

We would once again like to thank the hospital and fantastic staff for all their expertise, care and support. Therefore Poppy's Uncle, friend and I are running the Great Midlands Fun Run in aid of the hospitals charity. It's an 8.5 mile run at Sutton Coldfield on Sunday June 10th.

So please dig deep and donate now!

Many thanks,

Mike Sabin (Grandpa)
