Daniels Wish
Daniel, from Edinburgh, is only 8 and he suffers from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, which is a degenerative and fatal muscle wasting disease that affects 1 in every 3,500 male children. Daniel's condition has now deteriorated so much that he can't walk without a wheelchair, and there is no cure.
Although Daniel's condition means he has a short life expectancy he wants to be a football commentator when he grows up. He loves football and his favourite footballer is Torres. Last year Daniel wrote to Torres to tell him about his condition and Torres' then-team, Liverpool, arranged for Daniel to meet him, but sadly Torres was transferred to Chelsea the day before the meeting and it was never re-arranged. Daniel then wrote to the charity Rays of Sunshine to ask them to grant his 'wish' to see Chelsea play and meet Torres.
If we can raise the money Daniel and his family will travel from their home in Edinburgh where Daniel will spend the day having a tour of Stamford Bridge, get to choose a souvenir from the Chelsea shop, watch a match and finally meet his hero. It would mean the world to him.
We’ve been fundraising in our offices and have managed to raise a lot of money offline, but our target is still a long way off and time is running out.
Please donate and put a smile on Daniel's face in time for Christmas.
Thank you for your kindness.
The team at Bruce & Co
