A Plea From The Site Admin

[Gteuk]

Hey all,

 

Not often I come on here other than to tweak / break the website,

 

I am writing on a plea to help someone I actually know with a charity fund raiser for a little boy called Mikey and many others like him who have a rare disease called Perthes Disease which is a condition where the top of the thigh bone (the femoral head) softens and breaks down. It occurs in some children and causes a limp and other symptoms. The bone gradually heals and reforms as the child grows. The aim of treatment is to ensure that the femoral head reforms back into its normal shape so that the hip joint can work well.

 

This is not the half of it as Mikey has also had a heart condition detected at a very early age

 

 

I have not really exploited this forum for my own gain, other than to cover costs of the server and upgrades oh and the odd plug for the company I work for. However I have never had a child so close with to me that has only had bad luck so early on in life. This time I am asking for your assistance to help a cause for a deserving child who can have a better quality of life with a few bare essentials for a youngster in his condition and possibly a few creature comforts on top.

 

Mikey's mother has always fought to help others with no thought to herself, this is now her time for others to help her and I want to be one of those people who can spread the word to help her and others like her, THE TARGET FUND IS ONLY £100 for this particular page I would like to see that target smashed into 1000's of pieces.

 

Mikeys fund raising page is here Help Mikey I will be eternally grateful to anybody that can donate as little or as much as possible, £1, £10, £100 (ok maybe the £100 a bit too far) but a donation to my Cousin would be most appreciated by me and I am sure his mother will be ready to kick the sh!t out of me as she does not know I am part of a vast community of car lovers

 

PS. I will ensure all paypal donate buttons never appear on this site ever again, if you find one report immediately and I will remove it.

 

Donate to Mikey's charity

 

Thank you for viewing and thanks in advance to those that contribute
