Sad News

Sadly, 10-year-old Alicia R passed away on the 17th of May from conditions caused by cystic fibrosis. She was friendly with Daisy, another Pal, and Daisy's mum Stephanie wrote this about Alicia:

"Alicia's courage, determination, strength and will to live was such an inspiration to everyone who knew her - she embraced life and when she was not in hospital she lived life to the full going to brownies, school, holidays with her family, bouncing on the trampoline with her brother. I know Alicia's family would want you to know how much comfort they all got from the support of Post Pals and how it made both Alicia and Nico smile."

Alicia had been on the website for a few months and was a vibrant and happy girl. We all give our condolences to her mother and little brother Nico.

RIP Alicia, you're with the angels now :(

Featured Pal: May

It's just before May so I decided to start up the Featured Pals section again. So sorry for letting it slip :(

THIS MONTH'S FEATURED PAL: ALICE P


Alice is 15 and has been a Pal for 3 years. She has Hodgkin's Lymphoma, a cancer of the lymphatic system. Her sister, Milly, is also a Pal. (although for some reason unexpressed in Alice's posts she has recently been completely removed from the site). She recently was told there was no more curative treatment on offer for her cancer. Nevertheless, Alice is still very much involved in raising funds for Postpals. She is an amazing Pal and really deserves some post.

She loves Lush bath products, Nintendo DS, and 'all things girly' :) She loves dogs and has a Labrador called Mabel.
