| LITTLE RYAN'S LEGACY LIVES ON | ||||
| Date : 08.12.07 | ||||
Ryan Brown, from Skellingthorpe, died on December 13, 2006 - exactly a month before his fifth birthday. He lost his brave battle against adrenal cancer, which affects less than 30 Britons a year. But despite his suffering, family and friends say they will always remember Ryan as a happy little boy. Ryan's grandfather Alec Brown (51), from South Hykeham, said: "He had been so brave and we will always remember the smile on his face." Now his family have set up the Ryan Brown Foundation to ensure Ryan's memory will live on. The foundation aims to raise awareness of adrenal cancer, send terminally ill children and their families on holidays to Tenerife, and boost funds to buy chemotherapy pumps for Great Ormond Street Hospital and the children's ward at Queen's Medical Centre, Nottingham. |
