One trip now, fewer later.

I've started writing this post about four times now because I didn't know how to say it.

Since we shared the Givealittle page we've felt everything at once. Happy. Honoured. Excited. Nervous. A bit embarrassed too, because asking for help feels uncomfortable. And so grateful we can hardly stand it.

The response has floored us. People we barely know have donated. People we haven't seen since school have messaged. We didn't expect any of it.

Because of you, the booking is made. Treatment starts next month.

A few weeks ago that felt impossible. It's happening because a lot of people decided to help a family they didn't have to help.

You've also been generous enough that we've gone past what we asked for. That extra isn't going to sit there. It'll go towards the equipment and practical bits that make this easier to live with day to day, and towards some support for the emotional side of it, because honestly that's the part that terrifies us.

Thank you. From all of us. We won't forget it.
