Story
At just one year old this incredible boy has endured more than us ever will in our lifetime. Danny, Leanne & the boys are living an endless nightmare.
Ted was diagnosed with a large cancerous brain tumour at just 5 months old after weeks of illness, hospital visits, doctors appointments & health visitor conversations. Since the diagnosis he's endured numerous surgeries, months of chemotherapy, countless infections & worries. If the original diagnosis wasn't hard enough to bear. His heartbroken parents & family have now learned at the 3 check that the months of invasive & harsh chemotherapy & surgery have not halted or helped in reducing the size of Ted's brain tumour. The tumour has continued to grow & his tiny body needed life saving surgery. A 14hr craniotomy & a tumour debulk. At Ted's diagnosis due to the size & location of the tumour they were advised surgery would not be possible so you can imagine the fear when the last conversation was we have no option but to operate!!
Once again this amazing boy astounds everyone including the doctors with his bravery and sheer determination! He survived the surgery & all his limbs are still working.
There's a huge road ahead as once hes stable enough the chemotherapy will begin again. Side effects from chemotherapy include hair loss, fatigue, brain swelling, seizures, vomiting, loss of memory & skin irritation. Sometimes, the inside of the mouth becomes inflamed and painful it's difficult to eat. Ted hasnt eaten much since the original health concerns started at just 4 months old. Its now known that Ted feels sick & vomits a lot due to the tumour pressing on his brain which causes him to feel constantly nauseous so he renquiries tube feeding.
Even through all of this trauma in his short life Ted continues to smile. The most heartwarming infectious smile you could ever wish to see. His story and bravery can't fail to astonish you. So we're doing this all For The Love Of Ted ๐๐๐

8 years agoApologies for the lack of updates. I just want to thank you all who have supported. Super Ted continues to defy all the medical professionals. He's now endured 2 major life saving / life threatening surgeries. He's through them both but desperately needs chemo due to the rate of which the tumour is growing back! It's aggressive but so is Ted's determination and will to beat this. The whole family thank everyone for their continued support it truly gives them great comfort โค for the love of Ted ๐๐๐

Super Ted has been battling a cancerous brain tumour since he was just 5 months old. The surgeries he's endured are too many to mention. Twice he's had life saving 14hr brain ops. I want to help raise money for his future to give him the help he needs when he beats this ๐ช
