Story

Our precious daughter Izzy was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia at 18 months old.  Izzy received treatment which gave her over 90% chance of survival.  Unfortunately after 16 months Izzy relapsed.  She required more treatment along with a bone marrow transplant.  Seven months after her transplant Izzy ended up in PICU with a rare post transplant complication.  After 5 weeks on maximum life support Isabella Camilla Darmoo (Izzy) passed away on August 7th 2015.

The charity spread a smile visit Gosh often and put smiles and laughter on sick children's faces.  When your a parent all you want is to magic the pain away and make your child smile. 


This charity does exatly that. Izzy could of been having the worst day, the worst chemo, missing home and so much more yet these guys would brighten up her day. It could of been someone singing her favourite songs, a magician having her in hysterics or showing us the coolest tricks!


Every visit was one that izzy couldn't wait for.  We will never see Izzy laugh or smile again but this charity has given us video memories to last us a lifetime. Please donate to this amazing charity. X
