Fight for Reid

It is with a heart shattered into a million pieces in writing this still in disbelief this is happening to us, yesterday was the worst day of our lives and where the fight begins. Our seemingly perfect 7 month old baby boy has been diagnosed with brain cancer.. words I never thought I would ever have to say and I would never wish the pain me and jeremey are going through on anyone. It has been so fast, from having a viral infection and teething and being abit extra unsettled to being admitted into peel them thinking he had fluid on his brain which we thought was worse case scenario to being told it was a mass which could have been a bleed or tumour, to then being in an ambulance lights and sirens up to Perth children’s into mri, to find out that our perfect bungle of smiles and joy has a tumour that takes up 2/3 of half his brain. In a week from now he will undergo brain surgery to try remove the tumour, it will probably take a few operations and then it will be chemo. We will never have a “normal” child or life ever again. We are heart broken, lost, numb, a pain I never thought I’d have to experience. I’m writing this post to let everyone know our situation, I’ve never asked for anything in my life and it’s with the heaviest heart I ask for everyone’s help and support, Jeremey will not be returning to work until Reid is stable and we have a mortgage car loans all these things that we will now have to pay with no income, please help us be able to spend every second with our boy. Thankyou
