Day +137

We wanted to let you know that Naoise’s battle for life is coming to an end. The medical team here on Bone Marrow Transplant Ward 23 in Newcastle have done their very best throughout the last five months. However, they have now confirmed that this is likely to be Naoise’s last week. Naoise has gone through so much in the last few months and even now she is showing her amazing spirit in her final moments. We are so proud of our daughter and the effect she has had on everyone she has met. She has made her mark in her short life and we believe she is now going to a better place. We thank you so much for your support, gifts, cards, wishes and prayers for Naoise. We ask that she continues to be in your thoughts and prayers for the week ahead.
