Type of diabetes
Type 2
Hi, I registered to ask a question on behalf of my mum (type 2), but while I'm here I thought I would ask if any of you could spare 5 minutes to send a card, letter, little gift or email to a girl called Alice. She is 14 and a type 1 diabetic (on a pump) which would of been bad enough but in Feb 08 she was diagnosed with hodgkins lymphoma, she has had a lot of treatment since including a transplant but the cancer hasn't gone away. Her sister Milly also has a medical condition and is having surgery this month in Great Ormond Street (Alice is currently in Alder Hey).

They both love getting post and their details can be found here

Will get on to it, my kids will too, have a son same age as Alice. My eldest son Matthew spent a long time in GOS being treated for Ewing's Sarcoma when he was 9. He's been lucky to survive it twice. It's a terrible time for any family, and very isolating.
We were told Matthew was terminally ill when he relapsed at 11, but pioneering treatment saved him; God willing same will be true for Alice.

Hi Jus, thanks ever so much for supporting Milly and Alice. I'm sorry to hear what Matthew has been through, I'm so pleased he has come out the other side though.

Thanks again,

Vikki
 
Hi just tried that link and it didnt work - wouldnt mind sending a card and maybe some music to cheer them .
 
Hi. Viks.
There should be no problem with your original links.....I have made them 'clickable' now....
 
Letter done - its actually quite hard writing to somebody you dont know - going to send with some pics of the doggies as well so who Alice likes them.
