Story

Adam, Luca and Thomas will be running the 1.5km in the Edinburgh Marathon Festival to raise some money to help Carly and Mason through this difficult journey they are just starting πŸ’™

On Friday 9th February Carly and Mason recieved the devastating news that a brain tumour has been found on Mason left side - some of the worst news a parent can hear.

On Thursday 28th March they were back at hospital to receive the pathology results from Masons tumour since being tested. Unfortunately, it was not the news we wanted to hear. Mason was diagnosed with a Grade 3 Choroid Plexus Carcinoma - a rare and aggressive type of malignant cancer. Due to the rarity of the disease it is difficult to establish a clear prognosis so therefore Mason will be treated on an individual basis.

The next step is that Mason will start his long and gruelling journey of treatments, starting with 6 rounds of chemotherapy that will take a minimum of 6 months to complete, which will strip him of his platelets and immune system.

He begins his long journey in a few weeks and understandably Carly will be by Masons side for everything. We are hoping any money the boys can raise Carly can use in any way she feels will benfit Mason πŸ’™
