Junior's Retinoblastoma Journey

Hi, I’m Courtney and proud mum of our warrior Jesse Junior.

On 27th September this year our 3 year old was diagnosed with Retinoblastoma Group E. Just 1 week later he had his left eye removed as the cancer was too advanced in his eye to save it.

Last week we was given the news that Junior will need to have a port fitted and endure Chemotherapy as well as many more hospital stays and testing that comes with it.

As a family we are devastated by the news but as a family we are remaining hopeful that with advances in medicine Junior will live a long healthy life. For now we live with uncertainty but hope.

We are asking for donations to go towards anything Junior and us as a family may need going forward and to treat him and his siblings as he goes through treatment.

As a family we are now at a loss with me going down to minimal part time hours for my husband to start a new job. Then to getting Juniors diagnosis just a week later and my husband not starting work just yet so we can be with him every step of the way. With my work not having more hours for me, then to find out we are having to look for a new home to the crazy increase on rent which is not realistic!

We would appreciate even £1 towards the cost of hospital trips, daily living, allowing us to spend time as a family and treating the kids to something special.
