Hi my name is Oska and I am nearly 10.

When my twin brother Leo was born, my mum says he saved my life and her life.

When I was born I weighed less than a bag of sugar, and I spent a very long time in hospital. Even when I came home I was still poorly I was really poorly for a long time, I was in hospital a lot.

I am walking up some of Roseberry topping with my mum, my daddy, my big brother and little sister next Sunday. That is Leo’s birthday and he isn’t here to have a party or cake.

So we are going on a walk to talk about him and to think of him.

I miss my brother all the time, I talk about him to my friends. I like to think he’s sat with me at school, or is playing next to me when I am on the PlayStation.

I am asking for people to please sponsor my walk, because it’s really important that my mummy and the people she works with keep looking after families like mine, and kids like me.

Thank you

Oska
