Hi everyone,

We are reaching out with heavy hearts and hopeful spirits to ask for support for our beloved Willow.

Willow’s Story

Recently, Willow underwent major surgery that led to devastating complications. She suffered three hemorrhages, spent two weeks in intensive care, and heartbreakingly, came close to losing her life twice. During this time, she also experienced two strokes and now faces blood clots around the veins in her brain.

Against all odds, Willow is still with us — but her journey is far from over. She has a long road of rehabilitation ahead, working on regaining her movement, vision, and strength.

Why We Need Your Help

The incredible team at John Radcliffe Hospital has given Willow the best possible start in her recovery, but once she leaves hospital, we will need to seek additional support. Funds raised will help us cover:

Private physiotherapy

Specialist swimming sessions to rebuild her strength

Ongoing rehabilitation therapies

Practical financial support as we navigate this challenging time

How You Can Make a Difference

Every donation, no matter the size, will help Willow take another step towards independence and healing. Your kindness will give her access to the care she needs and ease the financial pressure on our family so we can focus fully on her recovery.

If you aren’t able to give, please consider sharing this page to help spread Willow’s story. Any funds that are received will all go towards Willow's recovery, anything left over will be donated to the Ronald McDonald house and the paediatric critical care ward!

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for standing with us. Your support means the world.
