Welcome to my blog!

Hi! I'm Dannii C, and I created this blog to try and gain interest for the amazing charity postpals.co.uk, where you can send emails, letters, cards and gifts to seriously ill children throughout the UK. Each month I will feature two different children from the website on my blog, post any updates for the kids on the site, do a monthly update, post any news generally from the site, post info about the charity itself and a little bit about every kid on the site, and basically do all I can to get more people to know about this amazing charity!

July: Featured Pals


Each month I am going to feature two kids on the site who could really use some cheering up right now. This month's kids are Jaz L and William M.
This is Jazmine L. She is 9 and adores Hello Kitty, High School Musical and singing/dancing. She has a little sister called Jessenia, who was 4 yesterday. Here is her story.
Jazmine was diagnosed with Ewing's Sarcoma, a type of bone cancer, in her femur at only 6 years old. It was discovered that the cancer had spread to her lungs and her family faced the reality that Jaz's cancer could be terminal.
Luckily, Jaz pulled through and the tumours on her lungs disappeared. In November 2009, she was declared cancer free, and her family were elated. Sadly, on the 8th July 2010 it was discovered that her cancer has returned and is terminal. She has compiled a list of all the things she wants to do before she 'gains her angel wings'. Please send her some lovely post and cheer her up.
