My son's best friend has just had an operation to remove a brain tumour. She will have to have at least two more ops. She's 9.
Please send her some vibes folks ?
The good news is that both the first and second operations went well and the brave little lady was up and about in no time. She came home on Saturday with the reality being months of chemo and possibly radiotherapy ahead of her. Today she went for her first appointment at The Royal Marsden and her parents had a meeting with her care team.
This has resulted in a real shock for the family. She needs treatment in the States and will be heading there in six weeks time for a nine week stay. Her treatment is funded but sadly, her dad and little brother will need to make their own way over there and the whole family will have to live without any income for the entire time.
As a result, we are setting up a fundraising page for them and I'm hoping that if I share the link here, my lovely otters might help by sharing it further via facebook, twitter or whatever media you use. I know it's cheeky to ask for your help, but this family have really had a raw deal having lost 3 members of their family to cancer already, all within the last few years.
