Fundraising for Calums Cabin
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
My profile photo is from my fundraising shark dive in 2014......and I'm doing it all again for the same wonderful charity.....The date is to be confirmed, but most likely March/April :-)
On Calum's 10th anniversary year, please help me raise funds to allow more children and their families to make special and irreplaceable memories at Calum's Cabin.
Calum's Story
Calum Speirs was born on 18th November 1994, one minute before his beloved younger twin sister Jenna. Calum was a fit and healthy young man until January 2006 when his first symptoms were spotted. Within 3 days Calum was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour. Calum's treatment included chemotherapy and radiotherapy, which Calum handled with great courage, dignity and humour for someone so young. Calum was an inspiration to all who knew and met him, he always laughed, smiled and thought of others. CALUMS CABIN was Calum's idea, knowing he and his family lived in a beautiful part of the world , wouldn’t it be great to have children suffering from cancer come to Bute and make special irreplaceable memories . Calum even organised his own funeral service to save Duncan, Jenna and I any worry or stress. We lost Calum 13 months after diagnosis on 16th February 2007. Calum lives on in Calums Cabin, and he has left us all with his drive and determination to make Calums Cabin what he would want it to be.
