Story

When a child is diagnosed with cancer life becomes full of fear, for them and their family. Fear of treatment, but also of families being torn apart, overwhelming money worries, of having nowhere to turn, no one to talk to.

At Young Lives vs Cancer, we help families find the strength to face whatever cancer throws at them. But every day 12 more children and young people hear the devastating news they have cancer. We’ll face it all together – but we can’t do it without you.

Our story: -

On 27th October 2023, Ivy-Rose was diag with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia,

Ivy-Rose was being treated in Gloucester Hospital first with RSV and the flu and with a diagnosis of leukemia to then be transferred via ambulance to Bristol Children’s Hospital to then having confirmed diagnosed with B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, so her Intense induction Chemotherapy treatment will begin from here to then be moved on to the next 2 cycles of another chemotherapy drug Blinatumomab, to then be in delayed intensification for upto 2 months in hospital to then go on to maintenance stage so long time ahead still, lots of time away from home, family and friends which we are missing them all so much,

We are soooo grateful to Young Lives vs Cancer for providing us with a home from home apartment as we would be lost with this amazing charity, so we would like to give something back to show how much we appreciate them for all the help and support they have given us.
