This is Maddison she is 7 years old from West Bromwich. Maddison has a rare Brain Cancer called Glioblastoma Multiforme, a cancer rare in children its most commonly found in adults over the age of 50. Sadly, Maddison's Cancer is Terminal, Glioblastoma is an Aggressive Rapid Growing form of cancer there is no cure. Maddison's prognosis isn't great she was diagnosed in February 2017 Doctors have said without treatment Maddison would not survive the next three months, with treatment they may be able to prolong her life to up to 12 months. Maddison has had a craniotomy (an operation to remove as much tumour as possible) she has 6 weeks of Radiotherapy and Chemotherapy together to try and attack the cancer cells and slow down the growth of the Tumour. She has currently finished a 2nd cycle of Chemotherapy this will continue 1 week in every month for the rest of her life. She's had a MRI scan recently which we are waiting to hear the results to see if the treatment she is receiving is having an effect in slowing down the rate that the cancer is growing. There is no guarantees that the treatment would work but we are hopeful and willing to try and prolong her life as much as possible.

So, we are now into the 4th Month since diagnosis and we are trying to fundraise as much money as possible to be able to take Maddie on trips and short weekends away (when she's not feeling poorly from the chemo) and keep that big smile on her face. We just want to make whatever time she has left as special and happy as possible.
