Story
15 months ago 7 year old Dexter and his familys’ lives were turned upside down when shortly after Dexter had been complaining of stomach pain, he was diagnosed with Stage 4 Neuroblastoma. A rare childrens Cancer that came with 20-40% chances of beating it.
Fast forward 15 months and Dexter has had to endure procedure after procedure, test after test, operation after operation, septic shock, collapsed lung and purferated stomach, 20+ rounds of Chemo, months on end in Bristol Childrens Hospital, a 4 week stay in isoloation in London to receive Radiotherapy, all with the hope that he would beat this monster called Cancer.
Unfortunately 2 weeks ago Dexters family were given the Unimaginable news that treatment was no longer an option and the Cancer had “won”.
Well NO it hasnt!!! Throughout all of this, Dexter has shown the bravery only a Superhero would know and has been tagged “A Superhero”.
As everyone knows, Superheros’ don’t lose. And this is one fight that Dexter wont stop fighting.
Dexter has compiled a “Goal List” (Bucket list) and wants to complete as many as he can, if not all of them before this Superhero has to go on another journey.
We’re asking for any type of help to get this dude his wishes, so if you can help in anyway, please please let us know.
Any money raised will be put towards helping with these goals and giving Dexter the Send off any Superhero deserves. Any money left over will be donated to a charity close to Dexters’ heart - Staceys Smile which helps families like Dexters dealing with Neuroblastoma by giving them holidays and treats to ease their journey.
Dexters family know that friends and family have already donated a massive amount to Dexters Journey and Neuroblastoma UK and wants everyone to know whilst any help is appreciated at this time, it is by no means obligatory or expected.
