Story

In February 2020 our darling son Ezra passed away at a day old.

I’d had a draining pregnancy but doctors always just said I was one of those people who suffered in their pregnancies and nothing seemed wrong with baby! 

Even once I had given birth, my son was given to me and he was perfect. Seemed healthy and was too beautiful for words. 

It wasn’t until a few hours after birth that he started making grunting noises. They took him to NICU as a precaution, and he rapidly deteriorated. 

Not even 24 hours after he was born, Ezra passed away. It wasn’t until several hours later that doctors discovered he had a blood disorder, which was later diagnosed as Leukaemia. 

The doctors knew none of the signs and had no idea how to help Ezra, as his condition is so rare and there is so little research and information. This is why we are fundraising for children with cancer. To fund that life saving research, and maybe one day someone else’s baby could beat childhood cancer 💙. 

He honestly was the most perfect boy and makes me and his Dad so proud x
