Story

Riley is a 8 year old boy who lives in Hartlepool.

Just 12 months ago he was diagnosed with cancer which sadly resulted in him requiring his lower half of his leg to be amputated.

This news was devasting for both Riley and his family.

Having his leg amputated has not stopped Riley being his fun bubbly self he has continued to try and live his life the way any other 8 year old would.

Riley's mam says he's her little hero who never lets anything get him down.

A few weeks ago Riley began to complain of pain in his shoulder, after further tests the family received the devasting news that his cancer had returned and is now in multiple parts of his body, the news has left the family devasted. The family have been given even more devasting news that the treatment given will only prolong his life.

Riley asked his mam and dad is my cancer back?

Riley's dream is to visit Disney land Orlando

please can you help make Riley's dream come true.

Quote from Riley's mam and dad - we would like to thank Miles for Men who have been by our side from the start and to everyone else who has supported Riley and our family through his journey, from the bottom of our hearts thank you.

Riley's mam Sarah, dad Stephen
