Toby is 5 years old and 4 days ago he was flown to starship critically Ill only to discover he had Burkits Lymphoma.

Wellington

Burkits Lymphoma is an aggressive type of blood cancer which is growing fast and effecting his kidneys and major organs as they filter his blood. Little Toby has been on dialysis and is currently in the icu of starship. They are closely monitoring his electrolyte and blood sugars. He had his first dose of chemo injected into his spine yesterday and today he had his head shaved so he doesn't get frightened when it starts to fall. He is now fighting cancer with all his might. He needs regular lumbar punctures and Bone marrow tests 3 times a week which means he has a general and they take this from his spinal fluid and tummy. I am trying to raise funds for his on going treatment and to help his devestated parents through this battle. They have a long road ahead but a journey we can walk with hope.
