More about About Niamh
We are trying to get her story and appeal out to as many people, as we can as the sooner she can have her treatment the better. Her family are doing everything they can even selling all their own belongings and it's heart-breaking for them to see their little girl going through this illness just knowing that it's the amount of funds needed holding them back. We are working tirelessly to raise the money for her because if she can bravely fight on then we won't give up doing all we can either. Here is a bit more about her story.. Niamh was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive childhood cancer called Neuroblastoma (Stage 4 High Risk) just before Christmas 2010 when she was just 3 years old. Since then Niamh has spent countless days and nights in hospital for treatment that has included Rapid Cojec Chemotherapy, a 4 hour operation to remove the tumour which was located on her adrenal gland, high dose chemotherapy and stem cell transplant and 14 treatments of Radiotherapy.
On top of this there have been lots of blood and platelet transfusions, lots and lots of scans and general hospital visits and loads of time away from home. Despite all this Niamh still remains the happiest, kindest, most caring little girl you will ever meet. She is always smiling and loves a huggle with her big sister Hannah or her mummy and daddy. Things were going really well with Niamhs treatment and she started big school in September. Life was getting back to normal, well sort of. In November 2011 plans were put into place to start the final antibody treatment called Anti GD2. This gives the biggest hope of keeping the Neuroblastoma away for good. After nearly 1 year of treatment there was light at the end of the tunnel for Niamhs family. The hospital carried out all of the usual pre- treatment MIBG & MRI scans and the bone marrow biopsies. Two days before going into hospital for the Anti GD2 Niamh's parents got a phone call from the hospital that broke their hearts all over again. The cancer had come back... Niamh started 2 new types of Chemotherapy in November 2011 and is going to be re-staged in January 2012 to see what and where we go next in the battle to save our little girl. We know we can't save her in the UK so we need to go to the USA to save her life.
She has featured in the Sun Newpaper,tv and Daily Mirror amongst others.
Raising money for Women V Cancer. A charity gig will take place on Wednesday 4th April @ The Black Bottom Club in Northampton for those that like a little live music.... Johnny Rickard has kindly volunteered to perform as Neil Diamond and Elvis (obviously not at the same time).
Tickets are £10 each and all proceeds are going to Women V Cancer.
We hope you can come and show your support!
Tickets are limited, so secure yours ASAP call 07527927673 or 07795603445.
