My grandson Cobie who was born 12th May 2020,  was recently diagnosed with Bilateral Retinoblastoma aged just 2 days over 3 months old. He was fast tracked to one of only two specialist teams in the UK at Birmingham Children's Hospital (other at Royal London), who's professionalism and care has absolutely amazed us.Cobie now has to undergo 6 months of chemotherapy after which the team are hopeful they can at least save his worst affected eye. He has already undergone his first chemo session and he is so brave.

We had never heard of this condition before and as you can imagine, it was a total shock. I want to support this charity so awareness is increased about this very rare eye cancer which can affect children up to the age of 5
