Hi everyone

My gorgeous niece Brogan is 18 years old tomorrow. She is spending her birthday in the HDU in the RVI where she has had an aggressive brain tumour removed. Thanks to the amazing staff, her operation was successful but she needs further treatment which is only available in America. If she doesn't have the treatment, there is a chance that she could be left with permanent sight loss and memory problems.

The NHS are funding the treatment and have generously paid for her and her mum's flights and accommodation. As the treatment is for 10 weeks, I am raising funds to help her mum with living costs while she is in America.

I (and other family members) are taking part in the Boxing Day dip to see if we can raise some money.

I recognise that this is an extremely expensive time of year for everyone but would be most grateful if you could donate anything you can.

Thank you all.

Betty
