Mighty Magnus' Brighter Future Fund

Team: The Little Magpie Fund
We started this page in memory of our beautiful son, Magnus Asika. Welcomed to the world six weeks early in September 2021, after some initial struggles in NICU, little Magnus joined his big brother, Axel, at home in London, where we enjoyed being a family of four for several months.
It was then in early January 2022, after what we had believed to be a routine follow-up cardiology appointment, we received some life changing news. Magnus had developed a serious, and rare in babies, heart condition called Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. This was the main symptom of a genetic condition he would later be diagnosed with called Noonan's Syndrome.
Our sweet and smiley little boy entered Great Ormond Street Hospital late January 2022 where he then remained for the next six months, until he passed away after the most gallant fight at nine months old. Over this time, we witnessed Magnus receive the best care possible. He had an incredible team of doctors and nurses, play specialists, physios, OT's, dietitians and more who pushed every day to make the very best for him. The softness and tenderness they consistently showed continues to console us. We shall hold them all in our hearts forever.
Magnus is an inspiration and shining light to all that know him. He continues to inspire us to fight on and fight on with a smile.
The incredible work that the teams do at GOSH depends on charitable support to give seriously ill children the best chance to fulfil their potential.
All donations will help ensure children like Magnus receive world class treatment as he did.
Many thanks,
Eva, Obi and Axel Asika
