Hey guys,

In June last year I hiked up the tallest mountain of North Africa Toubkal at 4167m in Morocco, then in August Steve and Boz joined me in pouring rain on lovely Ben Nevis in Scotland at 1345m, only to train towards our biggest challenge in April 2019, the one and only Everest base camp at 5380m.

All this is for Alfie!

Alfie is a lovely 17 year old teenager going through his Neuroblastoma cancer treatment, not for the first time. I met Alfie when he was only 6 and he and his family are an amazing bunch of lovely people.

WE ARE RAISING FUNDS FOR ALFIE'S IMMUNOTHERAPY TREATMENT WHICH WILL GIVE HIM A HIGHER CHANCE OF SURVIVAL BY LOWERING THE POSSIBILITY OF ANOTHER RELAPSE.

Please support Alfie by donating any amount you can afford towards his fundraising target and so all the sweat, aching legs and whining (mainly from me) are worth the effort.

Thank you so much for your kind donations :-)

Stana, Boz and Steve xx

Alfie Ward was born on the 25th May 2002, he weighed 7lb 12.5oz. On the
27th May 2008 and the 15th October 2010 Alfie became a big brother to
Bailey and Freddie, two young boys who love Alfie as much as he loves
them.Alfie started life a happy and healthy little boy, that was, until
he was diagnosed with Ganglineuroblastoma in September 2005 at the age of 3 years. Alfie was just starting nursery when this diagnosis came
through. Doctors agreed to keep an eye on it through routine
scans.Unfortunately, at the end of 2007, during a routine MRI scan,
doctors found another lump in Alfie’s abdomen and in January 2008 he was diagnosed with stage 4 high risk neuroblastoma. With Alfie due to
become a big brother in May 2008 his parents feared the worst...that he
would never meet his younger brother. Alfie then began the road to
recovery and started the remission step of neuroblastoma. He went back to school, enjoyed being back amongst his many friends and continued to develop into a handsome little boy.During another routine MRI scan in Dec 2011 the doctors found a query with the result. This resulted in Alfie having more scans and tests. Although not diagnosed as a relapse of neuroblastoma, doctors decided Alfie needed to start intense chemotherapy to shrink the thickening area they found near Alfie’s spine and kidneys.Unfortunately chemotherapy didn't shrink it enough but confirmed that it was Relapse of neuroblastoma. All I want is for my 17year old boy to enjoy the rest of his life and try and get rid of this disease once and for all.Thank you so much for taking the time to read about my beautiful boy, anything you can do would be greatly
appreciated.

From Alfie's mum Shelley!
