AJ’s Jerusalem Marathon for Edie’s Fight
Donation protected
On Friday, 20 March 2020, AJ will be running the Jerusalem Winner Marathon!
I am running to raise money for a very special girl, Edie Jackson, a brave 6-year-old from Waltham Abbey, Essex who was recently diagnosed with an aggressive brain tumour called DIPG. The funds raised will support Edie for any medical treatments and possible clinical trials that the Jackson family are currently exploring.
Edie’s dad is a close friend of mine and I want to help in any way I can. I have never run a marathon before so this will be a huge challenge for me but nothing compared to the challenge that Edie is already fighting head on!
Please sponsor me and donate whatever you can to this very worthy cause to help fight for Edie.
“No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted”
Please read Edie’s story below by her beautiful family.
Welcome to Edie's Fight!
Our beautiful Edie is just 6 years old and such a smiley, happy-go lucky little girl. She loves performing, including playing football. She is a gentle soul and is loved so much by all her family, especially mummy and daddy, brother Charlie and their dog Coco.
Unfortunately, on 27th November 2019 life changed forever as the family received the devastating news that Edie has an aggressive Brain Tumour called DIPG. As you can imagine, this is truly the kind of news that brings the entire family to its knees and leaves them fearful for the future.
But, while they will face many physical, emotional and financial challenges, the gloves are off and the entire family are ready for the fight that lies ahead!
They are an extremely close and proud family so the decision to start the fund is not an easy one, but they are going to need financial support to fight and get the best medical help and treatment possible, to make sure Edie wins her battle.
Any money raised will initially help with any additional medical visits and treatment, physical therapy and possible clinical trial logistics which is something the family are already exploring.
We are aiming to raise as much money as possible and by donating, no matter how big or small, you will help ease the financial burden on the family so that they can just focus on being present with Edie and face this challenge head on.
All money raised will go directly to the Jackson family and the care of Edie and they are so unbelievably grateful.
Any money not used by the family will be donated to a suitable DIPG charity to raise much needed awareness and work towards a future where children and their families do not have to suffer at the hands of this awful disease.
Thank you xx
