Story of Alexander
This page has been made by friends of the
family, this is a 100% non-profit all money raised goes directly to Alexander.
You could ask anyone about Alexander and most answers would be:
funny, way smart, happy, always smiling, mischievous, adventurous,
contagious laugh, loves his mommy and daddy and sooo full of life!
In July 2015, he was diagnosed with ATRT Brain Tumor (atypical
teratoid/rhabdoid tumour).It is a very rare, fast-growing tumour of
the brain and spinal cord.
About half of these tumours begin in the cerebellum or brain
stem.
In 8 days he’s undergone two brain surgeries of
approximately 8 and 7 hours long, 80% has been successfully removed.
The rest of the tumor is to be treated in a months’ time possibly with
chemotherapy and radiation.
In less than a month Alexander
humbled all of us and taught us to have hope, give love without
measure, have faith even if it’s impossible to see and to never stop
fighting.
We create this page out of love for this beautiful little boy,
you have our hearts Alexander! your are a fighter and we will be with
you every step!
Our goal for this page is to raise awareness about this
horrible, rare, life-threatening disease and to support Alexander
& his parents through their journey.
He has been declined by the NHS for Proton Beam Treatment and now we are asking for help to raise the much needed funds for his hospital bills. There is no proton beam treatments in the UK so he has to be treated abroad.
