Story
As most of you know William has been in hospital and had a bone marrow biopsy on Monday 16th. Leann received the most devastating news that any parent could, they found some abnormal cells in his bone marrow. She was told that her only child has been diagnosed with Burkitt lymphoma/leukemia. William then went for an MRI of his head which came back showing cancer around his brain and then he was taken to theatre on Friday 21st for a central line to be put in, another bone marrow biopsy and and lumber puncture and course of steroids started in prep for chemotherapy starting. It's going to be a very long road ahead of intensive chemotherapy but William is a fighter and he will beat this with all of your support. 💙
Leann had to give up her full-time job to care for her son like any parent would, being a single parent with no income coming in for 12 weeks we are looking for people to donate what they can so Leann can support her son with whatever he needs.

6 years agoWe wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone who is continuing to donate onto Williams page, I honestly can't thank you all enough! William is doing really well at the moment and has been allowed a few days over at clic while we wait for his blood counts to recover enough before the next cycle of chemotherapy starts.

6 years agoWilliam has completed his second round of chemo last Friday but has been suffering from some of the side effects from the chemo. He is not eating or drinking and unable to keep down his overnight feed so is getting TPN (nutrients) through his central line along with being on a morphine pump for the pain. He has really bad mucusitis and today we were told he has a fungal infection in his blood and further tests need to be done to make sure it hasn't spread. He is being so brave and I am so proud of him! #wewillbeatthis
