Back in February when diagnosed, she had collapsed, very close to coma – at the time…. this really was bad.  Ever since, we have been dealing day to day and my daughter is doing extremely well, managing her own injections and asking questions on her worries.  We do have bad days though – surely that’s understandable?  We recently attended a family support weekend and the tears we saw and shared there certainly indicated that feeling guilty that somehow you may have inflicted this on your own child was something that many parents had at least felt at some point.  As said though, these feelings are on our bad days which are getting fewer now but do still occur.  On the other ‘good’ days we think straight and know full well that it is all just part of life and not the end of the world.  And rollercoaster is pretty true – my daughter has really positive days but occasionally she just cries and cries, again this is improving but heartbreaking for us to watch. As I am still learning lots and wanting to do what I can to support the cause, the collection idea came about, I myself, throw many cartridges away and thought I may as well do something simple like this to generate some fundraising.  It also giving my daughter something to focus on.  She has her school involved, and a collection bin there which is good.  It is all new but we have raised over
