Help Needed

[Darth_Tiger]

Hey guys, there is a lot of love out there for kids with cancer, my family being the recipient of a great deal of generosity from many people on this board a few years ago when my boy Josh battled lymphoma (and looks to have won). During our journey we met another family with a little guy called Isaiah. He lost his eyes to cancer much the same as Tyler Fishlock. He's a great kid and I had the pleasure of teaching him drums for while in SA where they live before we moved to Victoria (yeah that's right, a blind kid playing drums it was awesome). Isaiah has recently switched his allegiance to the mighty Tiges because of Tyler Fishlock. He listens to the games every week on the radio and gives his dad (a crows fan) grief at every opportunity.
The weekend of rd 23 he and his mum will be in Melbourne to see specialists because his bone structure has issues in his face due to having no eyes. They want to attend the Tigers game against the bombers on the Saturday night. Now I know a few of you have connections with the club. Any chance we can get this little kid in the rooms or something? Anything would be appreciated, I know the hell this family has been through and always he is smiling and full of life and energy. I'm really hoping now that the dons can field a team that weekend

Good luck

 

[Cevap_Roll]

That's terrible.
See if the Richmond official can do something.
Best of luck

All the best with it, Darth. Hope the club gets involved, a worthwhile thing to do!

As Cevap said Darth, contact Richmond Official

All the best to Isaiah and the family, cancer is an insidious disease, made even worse when someone has it that has not even had an opportunity to experience life.

If someone wants to put a pot together so the young tacker can splurge in the Tigers giftshop, happy to throw some $$ in

 

[NUFC Tiger]

It sucks what happens to these young kids (and indeed all people) but it's always amazing to see how they cope and deal with the hand their dealt and still try and live their lives to the fullest.

Great stuff DT and RFO - we are all part of the wider Richmond family and it's always great to see the club looking after its own.

Also, young Tyler should get some kind of reward/recognition for being an ambassador to the club and helping bring in new fans like Isaiah

[RFC_Official]

If you're pooling money I'd say do it for a greater cause, his health.

We can handle the gear for him.
