My beautiful and talented daughter, Clare, is managing extremely well - after a traumatic year or more of peaks and troughs in her battle with a brain tumour and the onset of epilepsy.
She was helped in no small measure by a wonderful lady, Helen, who created the charity Brainstrust.
This organisation has but one aim in life: to help and comfort all those who have been diagnosed with such tumours.
Clare is now trying to give something to Brainstrust and has organised a raffle for one of her unique Fairytasia sculptures.
Clare aims to raise at least £250 via £2 raffle tickets. Once the £250 target has been achieved Clare will draw the raffle and the winner will receive the sculpture.
Donations (raffle tickets), via the charitable "Just Giving" website, is Clare's preferred way of handling this as it is a dedicated, trusted and straightforward way of operating this undertaking.
Clare's sculptures have sold for over £500 in recent years and £250 is a fair average for this particular creation.
Please have a look at this link: http://www.justgiving.com/Fairytasia and anything you can do to help Clare to help Brainstrust will be greatly appreciated.

Philip, I'm so glad that Clare continues to do well--and I hope that you are doing well too.
Thanks Snowy. Clare is truly an amazing young lady and definitely a fighter. Cheers, Phil.
It is a a wonderful thing your daughter is doing to commemorate her own survival Philip. Best to all of you and yours.
Cheers Mark. Very proud of Clare and I'm sure she'll hit her target.
Best wishes, Phil.
Target of £250 reached and EXCEEDED.
Many thanks to all who supported my daughter's help for BRAINSTRUST charity. Such a worthwhile organisation.
Best wishes to all.
I just thought I would drop and maybe find something new from your side of the globe, but, alas, it was not to be, so I will just say that I envy you your fine daughter, and I hope she continues to do well.
Thanks Snowy. Clare has not been as well as she was; her meds have 'levelled out' and she will be seeing a consultant on 1 August. Very disappointing, but she bears up so bravely and we love her so much.
So sorry to hear, Philip, but there appears to be progress both in daughter Clare and the BRAINTRUST charity she is helping promote.
As a parent of grown children, I certainly empathize.
I just want you to know, Philip, that I do keep coming round in the hope you will one day bless us with a new post.
Hey, Philip, I hope you'll be "chronicling" your big move.
Philip, I'm here from Snowbrush where I read of your upcoming move and the reason why. You have a great friend in Snow. The man has a wonderful ability to care. I vote with him in chronicling your new situation as soon as time permits.
Thanks for all the kind words, Lotta. I'm sure that both of us would welcome the latest news about the big move, so how about it, Philip?
While I am late to comment, I hope your daughter is doing better these days. What a lovely thing she is doing - her survival is a testament to her spirit and yours.
Phillip, best of luck to your daughter Claire.
~Lorna
