One of my oldest and dearest friends recently lost their lovely baby son to Meningitis. Here is a short message from them:
"Ethan was a beautiful little boy who died of meningitis aged 18 months old. He was born on the 11th October 2006 and died on the 13th April 2008. He is sadly missed but forever in our hearts. Ethan was a warm, gentle and caring son - any contribution that you make would be extremely welcomed regardless of the amount. By donating in the name of Ethan, meningitis uk will be better equipped to help save more lives and work towards finding a vaccine. It's too late to save our little angel, but others can still have a chance."
There is little I can do to help, but hopefully anyone viewing my pages will see this and spare what they can towards the cause.
