Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Myself and numerous friends will be taking part in a fun day at the Maytree Pub, St Peters Rise, Headley Park on Sunday 7 August 2016.  Paul and Bernard Flynn will be taking part in Cambridge the same weekend .

Myself, Sheps, Sam, Eddie, Stuart, Ang, Catherine, Mary, Bernard, Paul, Dan, Damien, Lewis, Frank  and six year old BELLA will be having our hair shaved off or cut considerably shorter (all hair to go to the children's wig making charity the Little Princess Trust),  Will be waxed or having a face shave to remove a beard.

KAYLUM RYAN was born on 13 October 2010.  When Kaylum was 2 years old his family was given the devastating news ......        Kaylum has Neuroblastoma, a life threatening cancer.

Despite intensive surgery and treatments to help beat it, in July 2015 Kaylum  suffered a relapse. Once a child has relapsed with Neuroblastoma the chance of a cure are very slim. Endless rounds of chemotherapy and treatments followed.

February 2016 a brain tumour was removed, a week later several scans to assess the spine and leg bones took place as Kaylum was having difficulty walking - suspected tumours, to date awaiting results.  In the meantime more chemotherapy and intensive radiotherapy to help get him into remission.

Desperate to stop the cancer returning, his family have launched a fundraising appeal to raise £280,000 so that he can access pioneering research at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York.
