Story
This is Tilly Sweet, a young girl from Tamworth struggling with terminal cancer. Tilly was diagnosed with a brain tumour when she was around 20 months old. For 6 long years Tilly has plucked up the courage to have undertaken 7 brain operations and 3 on going years of chemotherapy.
Disastrously and to the dismay of Tilly's family, the relentless cancer which has taken so much of Tilly's time, life, and courage made a heart breaking return in January 2017. Although the odds haven't been in Tilly's favour for the past 7 years she still has an overwhelming positive outlook and ambition on life. Tilly is bravely battling 1 brain tumour at the moment with another suspected tumour on the other side of her brain.
As a result, Tilly has made one final wish from her family, to live life to the fullest and have one last enjoyable, positive experience at Disneyland Florida, whereby she can forget everything that has happened and for a couple of days at least be the little princess that she has always been in her families eyes and enjoy herself as any given child should be able to. The family have set the date for 30th August to ensure Tilly is in a good enough way to enjoy the dream!!!
The huge problem is the insurance to take Tilly to Florida is an eye watering £5000, which is absolutely scandalous. However this sum of money should not stand in the way of a little girls last wish, therefore I feel compelled to act.
I personally would love to help Tilly and the family with her final wish and try my utmost to make it an unforgettable experience. I am currently taking place in a charity boxing match on 22/09/18 and would love for everyone to get involved in #teamtilly30 so that we can raise as much as possible to help with the insurance costs as well as make that holiday an extra bit special for the family.
I would hugely appreciate any donations, shares, people talking about it.... anything to help get more people involved.
Thank you all very much
Keith
