Story

This is a brave little boy who, just two weeks after his third birthday, began to show signs of illness. Initially thought to be a simple virus, the situation quickly escalated. After several trips to the GP and hospital, it became clear that something was seriously wrong. He started limping and was scared to move due to pain.

He was then hospitalized and diagnosed with a tumor near his left kidney which had also spread to his chest.

On 02/05/2025, he underwent a CT scan and an MRI to determine the exact type of tumor and whether it has spread. Despite his young age, he has shown incredible bravery throughout this ordeal. However, the new faces he encounters daily, along with the constant tests and needles, are overwhelming for him.

On the 9th May 2025 he was diagnosed with High Risk Stage 4 nueroblastoma. He has a tumour near his kidney, in his chest the back of his neck. It is also in his bone marrow which has caused bruising around the eyes. He is now having Chemotherapy every 10 days which is combined with various strong drugs. This treatment will last for 18 months and be adjusted to his needs. He will undergo surgery and Radiotherapy in the coming months.

We are reaching out for help to raise funds that will assist with travel costs to and from the hospital, parking fees, any future medical treatment, special medical items and clothes, and most importantly, provide him with joyful experiences alongside his siblings.

Our goal is to ensure that amidst this long and difficult journey, there are moments filled with happiness, joy and wonderul memories. He adores Thomas the tank engine and Peppa pig so taking him to see the REAL Thomas at watercress line, Thomas land and Peppa Pig world would mean the world.

We humbly ask for your support in raising as much as possible so that we can give him everything he needs during this trying time. Your generosity will make a significant difference in our lives as we navigate through these challenges. We will keep you updated on our journey and remain hopeful for brighter days ahead.
