Headstone for our wonderfully loving grandson RUBEN
Donation protected
Hi my name is Jo and I am hoping to raise enough to buy a headstone for my gorgeous, witty, cheeky ,loving, intellectual grandson RUBEN.
He was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic leukemia in January this year just after his 8th birthday.
He fought the disease with every inch of his being. He stayed so strong for everyone even on the ever increasing chemotherapy and lumber puncture treatment days. The journeys to Sheffield Childrens Hospital wiped out any savings the family had, RUBEN was eventually admitted and stayed for nearly 4 months before finally our family were given the heartbreaking diagnosis there was nothing further Sheffield could do.
We sadly got the same news from GOSH when he went there for the trial drugs they had there.
My son and daughter in law decided to bring him home and care for him during his final days. He finally gave up his valiant fight on August 26th in the care of our loving family.
We would like to be able to give him a beautiful headstone so his 3 younger brothers (and the rest of the family) can visit a lovely space and share stories as they grow up.
