“You hear the words ‘I’m sorry, your daughter has leukaemia’ and your mind immediately goes to a dark place. That feeling from those first few hours will stay with us forever.” Oliver, Beatrice’s dad. Beatrice was diagnosed with leukaemia at just 14 months old. She continues to need cancer treatment at GOSH, but for now, she’s able to spend more time at home with her family. Together, they’re making the most of these moments by doing all the things Beatrice loves, like listening to music and dancing. Beatrice’s family generously shared their story on today’s episode of This Morning. Joining presenter Josie Gibson, they helped to raise awareness of our Build It. Beat It. Appeal and the need for a new world-leading Children’s Cancer Centre at GOSH.
I was in the same position years ago, also when I was about 14 months. Sending all my love to the family; I know GOSH has the best care and amazing staff in the world. 💜 💜
I hope she can get CAR-T therapy if she needs it. The Opie Jones Foundation was established to help support patients.
I remember those words. Your life changes in a heartbeat.

1mothis is what gosh is all about, no child and family should have to go through them moments alone.
