Ezra’s Adventures in Memory of His Twin Arlo

Donation protected
Our beautiful identical twin boys, Arlo and Ezra, were born on 28 September 2023.

On 1 June 2025, our lives turned upside down when Arlo was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive brain cancer called AT/RT. From the moment of his diagnosis, he showed remarkable courage. He underwent two major brain surgeries, one lasting more than 18 hours and another lasting over 9 hours, as well as six rounds of chemotherapy.

Arlo spent almost all of his time in hospital after his diagnosis, only able to leave when we were told his cancer had become terminal. On 24 November 2025 at 2:22 am, Arlo passed away peacefully. His love will always live on through his twin brother, Ezra.

Ezra is now navigating the world without the twin who has been by his side since birth. He needs stability, gentleness, and the close comfort of his mum and dad, who spent so much time away from home while fighting alongside Arlo in hospital.

Why We Are Creating This Fund

This fund has been created to help cover essential household bills and living costs, allowing mum and dad to remain at home with Ezra during this incredibly fragile time.

We also want to make special memories with Ezra in honour of Arlo, hopefully through day trips, gentle adventures, and experiences that bring comfort. The fund will also help support Ezra as he grows up, carrying his brother’s memory with him.

Most importantly, your support will help give the entire family breathing space as we adjust, heal, and find our way forward together.
