GOSH - Rebekah is Flying without Wings!
How brave is Rebekah, she recently did a Tandem Skydive at Swansea Airfield whilst fundraising for Great Ormand Street Hospital (GOSH) at the same time raising awareness regarding Organ Donation.
“Jumping out of a perfectly good plane at 12,000ft at a speed of 140mph – WHY?”
Great Ormand Street Hospital recently cared for my friend’s little boy Billy who was diagnosed last year with an extremely rare heart condition (Restrictive Cardiomyopathy). There is no known cure, Billy was placed on the urgent transplant list for a new heart, in order to both prolong and improve his quality of life.
On 26th February a new heart became available, and the family were rushed to GOSH, where in the early hours of the following morning Billy underwent his life saving operation. Billy is still recovering and is doing remarkably well under the amazing care of GOSH.
They have been a huge support system to Billy’s family as well as Billy himself, an incredible hospital delivering life changing moments and supporting families at difficult times.
Rebekah has currently raised over £1,055.00 and her Just giving page is still open for more donations if you would like to help others like Billy.
