    Story

    I'm running the Vienna marathon in April and I'm fundraising for an amazing little boy from my town called Seraph. Seraph could really use some help with his fight against Neuroblastoma. If you have a pound or two to spare, please consider donating, either on this page, or directly through his fundraising page (address below), it could make such a difference to this little boy and his family.

    This is what his family say about Seraph on their fundraising page https://solvingkidscancer.org.uk/campaigns/seraph/

    Seraph is a very cheeky little monkey- As many four year olds are. He likes dinosaurs, Lego, Minecraft, and giggling like an idiot. Most of all though, he loves his big brother, Logan.

    Seraph also has High Risk Neuroblastoma; an aggressive form of paediatric cancer, with only a 40% chance of surviving the next 5 years.

    In 2017, he was a just normal 3 year old; finding his feet at nursery, making new friends, climbing on everything! One night, just before Christmas, he fell out of his cot and broke his arm. Just our luck, we thought. Not knowing what was to come. Over Christmas, he still seemed in a lot of pain, so we returned to A+E. An exploratory ultrasound revealed a tumour in his abdomen. Further investigation showed the cancer was in his skeleton and bone marrow. The broken arm had very much been 'a lucky break.' Without it, our first trip may well have been to PICU.

    Seraph has been through so much; surgery, chemotherapy so strong it has damaged his hearing, a stem cell transplant (which had him in isolation for a month, and in hospital for 2). He was the first patient at Addenbrookes to undergo 5 weeks of radiotherapy for this disease, and he did each day without general anaesthetic (unusual for a child so young). Finally, we hope he'll finish Immunotherapy in June 2019.

    Although this is one of the most intensive protocols for any paediatric cancer (and all the NHS can currently offer) still about half of the children who make it through, relapse. Therefore we are fundraising for future treatment. Current possibilities cost in the hundreds of thousands of pounds, and are (just now) only offered abroad.

    'Logan is our moon. Seraph is our sun. I honestly don't know what we'd do without him. Every child deserves a full and happy life, and we need both our children to shine.'

    Please share and donate to allow Seraph access to potentially life-saving treatment.
