George Jumps for Charity!

My little nephew George (he's only 3yrs old) took part in a week of fundraising at his nursery and yesterday completed 119 jumps. They are supporting Birmingham Children's Hospital as I believe one of the children at the nursery is receiving cancer treatment at said hospital. Can't believe they managed to hold the kids attention for that long 'cos at their age it flits about all over the place, but my bro' posted on Facebook how proud he was of his son's efforts :-) And at that age the thought that they might actually be faced with the harsh realities of life is pretty damn scary. I remember Julia going to a birthday party for a boy in her class whose sister was suffering from cancer, leukaemia I think it was. They were all only in the Infants school and she sadly passed away after moving up to the Juniors, so no age and I couldn't believe how difficult it must have been for him to have to face the death of a sibling at his tender age. But sadly life is very unfair at times and all we can ever do is to protect our kids from such things for as along as we can.
