Story
Isla Caton is 3 years old and has been diagnosed with a rare child cancer called Neuroblastoma, Only a 100 children in uk are diagnosed with this cancer each year making her pretty special.
She is currently having treatment at gt Ormond st hospital and has a long road of treatments ahead of me.
Her Mum and Dad are now trying to raise money for her to have the Bivalent vaccine in Memorial Sloan Kettering cancer hospital in New York, that will give her the best chance of her cancer not returning.
They are doing this in conjunction with The Bradley Lowery Foundation.
The Bradley Lowery foundation has been set up to help families who need to fund raise for treatment or equipment, not available on the NHS. We will support families through their fundraising campaign in order to help achieve their targets. We offer not only support, but grants where eligible
Anyone who knows me will know that I’m a Millwall supporter to the core and that West Ham are the team I love to hate.
But when it comes to children and cancer, rivalries and colours become insignificant and we all pull together as one.
I’m running the Brentwood Half marathon on March 18th to help raise money towards this brave little girls target that she needs to reach.
I’ve put the target at 500.00, but if it reaches 1000.00 I will run wearing a West Ham shirt. I expect this to pull in plenty of extra money as it’s the only way I’d ever do it.
