Cody was born in Dec 2013 from the start it was clear Cody had needs and something wasn't right after many months of being in and out of hospital and endless tests he was diagnosed with a very rare chromosome condition. Cody has duplicated of 5p15 and part deletion of 10p15. To date Cody is the only child in the world with this combination. Due to this Cody has feeding issues he can only take completely smooth puree. Cody is getting very close to taking his first steps unaided this is due to past support and fundraising to provide Cody with equipment and stimulation to keep going. Cody is non verbal he is a couple of months into learning Makaton which he is picking up extremely well but again requires funding for recourses.

Cody started suffering from seizures and after several serious seizures he has recently started anti-seizure meds which arrears to be going well.
Cody also suffers with hearing loss and breathing problems.
Cody's needs are very complex but he is a happy little boy who's smile is very infectious. he has lots of love to give and is generally a happy boy.
Due to all of Cody's needs he has regular hospital appointments which do cost extra in fuel and car park charges.
Yazmin is an amazing young lady who came to us and said she not only wanted to cut her long beautiful hair off to send to princess's trust at the same time raising money for Cody but to raise even more money she is going to have the remaining hair completely shaved off!
As Cody's parents we are touched and has brought tears to our eyes please if you can support Yazmin as she does this incredible act
