In so many ways, Harrison is just like any other toddler. He loves to play and have fun. However many things set him apart from others his age: he consumes all of his food through a gastrostomy tube, gets a nightly medication that suppresses his immune system, and spends lots of time in hospital visiting different doctors. 

For most of his life, three-year-old Harrison has been battling 

His painful symptoms started when he was just 7-months old. His case baffled doctors; they had not seen a child this young with bowel disease. 

Since then Harrison has been very ill at times and lost a lot of weight and blood and is very anaemic. He is always tired, he will sleep most of the day and then at night and now starting to suffer from pain in all his joints which make it hard for him to walk so he depends on a pushchair to rest in when he is out having fun. 

Harrison has a lot of "bad" days when he will not be well enough to go out or go to school, he has days when he will feel very sick and be in a lot of pain as parents this is so difficult for us to watch as all we can do is comfort him. For us there is nothing worse than watching our child suffer and we wish for nothing more than a cure. 

As difficult as it is to live with this disease, Harrison and his family are finding strength to still live fully and happily. Harrison's older sisters are fully aware of their brother's debilitating disease and are very proud of him, and miss him very much when he is in hospital. Despite living with a chronic disease of the bowel, Harrison's still pushers himself to go to school when he is well enough to run, play and live as normal a life as possible. 

This charity has been a godsend to us. It's so important for information, support and research purposes and we want to try and raise as much money as possible in honour of our super hero Harrison.
