Freya is a 4yr old beautiful girl who is fighting cancer!

Hey my name is Lynsey, I'm going to be raising money for Freya and her family, by doing the 5k race for life on the 29th June in Louth.

Any funds raised will be to help Freya and her family through this time, as her mum can't work due to needing to be with Freya all of the time whether that be in hospital or at home.

On New Year's Day 2025 my friend Jess and her husband received the devastating news that there little girl has cancer, the words no parent wants to hear!

Freya was diagnosed with Childhood lymphoblastic lymphoma which is a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that primarily affects children and adolescents, arising from immature lymphocytes (lymphoblasts) and often originating in the mediastinum.

Freya will be in and out of hospital for the next 2 1/2 years while having chemo and various other treatments during her stays while only being able to have limited visitors due to her being so vulnerable. Jess is unable to work due to needing to be with Freya through all of her hospital stays and while she is home as she needs lots of looking after at this time. Freya's dad is holding the fought at home with their eldest and working but with one less income this is going to make things tricky for them as a family.

Childhood lymphoblastic lymphoma is normally treated with the same treatment regimens that are used for acute lymphoblastic leukemia so this is going to be a rough ride. It would be good if we could come together to take a load off their shoulders at this time whilst she undergoes chemotherapy.

Please keep the family in your thoughts.
