Our beautiful son, Benjamin, was diagnosed with neuroblastoma at just 11 months old. Something no parent is ever prepared for.

In May, everything changed.

Benjamin went from being a happy, content baby to suddenly (overnight) being unsettled, irritable and couldn’t stay asleep. We knew something wasn’t right and after 5 weeks of being back and forth to get answers we were FINALLY taken seriously.

What followed was a whirlwind of hospital stays, tests and emergency spinal surgery followed by a stay in intensive care; it was so scaring watching our little boy go through it all!

On the 11th June, Benjamin was diagnosed with neuroblastoma.

Since that moment, our lives have revolved around hospitals, treatment, recovery and doing everything we can to stay strong for Benjamin while navigating the fear and uncertainty that comes with this diagnosis.

We’re doing everything we can to stay strong, but the emotional and financial toll is overwhelming. One of us has had to step away from work to fully support Benjamin during this time which is obviously causing financial worries.

We’re setting up this GoFundMe to ask for help. Any support, no matter the size, will make a difference to us. It will allow us to stay by his side and give him the care, comfort, and stability he needs without the constant weight of financial stress.

If you can donate, we are endlessly grateful. If you can’t, please consider sharing our story.

With love,

Kirstie, Dan, Daisie & Benjamin x
