Charity Sale - Fraser Smith, 3&1/2 years old ...

something i found on another site come on lads lets have a bit support,
Charity Sale - Fraser Smith, 3&1/2 years old ...

http://forum.pigeonbasics.org/topic/53446-paul-thomsons-request/ ... s-request/

Fraser Smith is 3 and a half and lives in my hometown, Forres in Morayshire. He suffers from 'Retinoblastoma' (cancer of the eyes). His family are trying to raise money to send him to Disneyland before he looses his sight completely. Fraser has already lost one of his eyes and now has tunnel vision in the other one. He was diagnosed at just 8 weeks of age and has been receiving treatment ever since. His sight is deteriorating and his family are desperate to give him some memories before he loses it completely. Fraser still has a lot of treatment ahead of him. He is having to get a special helmet fitted as he is prone to falling over, he has been tested for muscular dystrophy due to having weak leg muscles. Fraser will have to have plastic surgery of his blind eye to have a prosthetic eye fitted. This requires his eye to be stitched and stapled and have silicone shells inserted to to stretch it. All this along with the 'chemotherapy' that he has had in the past is a lot for a small boy to cope with.

I would like to thank everyone for their kind donations. I would also like to ask that the members dig deep and help raise as much as we can for this young boy. I am confident that the members of Pigeon fraternity will do Fraser and the family proud.

Many Thanks

Thanks for putting this up Ian, your a good lad. Guys thanks for the donations. You can either pay via paypal as detailed or you can send direct to me (pm me for the address)

Thanks to the admin team for having this on here to.

I am trying to raise money for a young lad who has had an awful lot to put up with in his short life. I have been overwhelmed by the calibre of birds my friends have donated and by the generosity shown by everyone. Pigeon men ALWAYS come to the fore in these circumstances.

Many thanks,

Paul Thomson ( a very proud pigeon fancier)

Hi David,

I didn't put out an appeal for yb's, I asked fancier's I know when I saw them or spoke to them. I am sure fanciers on here would have donated but as I am not on much Suspect

it would not have been right of me to ask.

Having said that I am greatful to Ian for highlighting the sale and to Rainbow who has sent me a pm and is sending a donation. I appreciate the support.

Many thanks,

Paul.

ah right, i understand........well done to you for starting the appeal, hope all goes well.
