Yesterday evening the real Santa from Story Time with Santa made a special visit to our home 🎅🏻❤️ As parents Christmas is proving difficult for us after losing Edie, she absolutely loved this time of year and we know she’d love us to still have a magical time. Especially her brother and sister. We had every intention on trying to take the children to see Santa but knew that it was going to be emotional. Then, one of our superhero friends Yvonne swooped in to save the day again! She arranged for Santa to come to us to take away a bit of pressure and help us avoid any crowds. Well, Santa was truly incredible! Niamh hasn’t stopped talking about it, he read a lovely story and although Iron Len ran riot he managed to get him to join in too! Next year I really hope we feel less pain because we would love to be able to visit Santa at one of his wonderful shows! Thank you Santa! 🙏🎅🏻

Still a few tickets available ❤️💙

This 5 year old girl lost her little sister to DIPG not even 2 months ago. Being only 13 months apart in age they weren’t just sisters, they were best friends. Niamh is so brave and remembers her sister everyday. When her class had to paint decorations for their class tree, Niamh chose not to use the class colour of green but asked if she can do a red and blue one for Edie as well as her own one. So Edie’s angel decoration now sits at the top of the class tree, sparkly and beautiful just above Niamh’s all red one. ❤️💙 The staff, parents and children have been incredible at Church Drive. We have such a great support network, from sat crying in the car and parents I don’t know coming up and hugging me (thanks Julie, I did need it) To raising money to help us out over Christmas while we try and pick up the pieces. This community is part of the reason that I can say I think we’ll be ok. We miss Edie so much, DIPG took her from us far too early and we cry everyday. But if we look around there is also so much love that we can’t not smile even through the pain. Keep being kind to others, you never know what they are going through 💔

🎄Come and join the Christmas fun!⛄️ For just £7 per child there will be a Santa visit with a gift each, disco, children’s buffet and so much more! Don’t forget to dress to impress, you could win the Christmas outfit competition!! 🎉🎁 ❤️🕷💙 JustGiving.spider-ede.org.uk www.spider-ede.org.uk Text EDIE03 £? to 70070 #Fight4Edie #DIPGAwareness
