Charlie Hilton, 17, born on 20th October 1998, was diagnosed with a very rare and aggresive cancer when he was 13 called Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumour in August 2012, (he was the only on in the UK that we were aware of). On 23rd July 2013 Charlie got the all clear. 5 months later he relapsed. January 2014 he started treatment again. During treatment they found out that the chemotheraphy was no long working. August 2014 he was told that his cancer was terminal! 

 

It was just him and his mum and they had a strong realtionship that no one could ever take away. All Charlie did was worry about everyone else around him; he didn't care if he was in pain , he did all he could to help others. He was a caring young boy and gave money to the homeless and helped out lots of other charities, even when he didn't have much for himself. 

 

Charlie was a popular boy, he looked after everyone. He was a 'big friendly giant' at the end we found out he was 6ft 4! Charlie would brighten up the room with his smile. He was a very smart and bright lad. He had his own business which he loved doing which was called; Computer Cures. He did love his gadgets. Charlie's Wish started in April 2015 to fulfil Charlie's bucket list. We had loads of things planned which we managed to tick of the list. He was really looking forward to doing them all. 

 

Wednesday 22nd July 2015, at 2:55am Charlie gained his handsome wings and unfortunatley lost his battle. The doctors were very surprised at how well he did. He was such a strong boy and even being in servere agony he still always had a smile on his face. Charlie's Wish is going to be a fundraiser to help raise money and awareness towards his rare and aggressive tumour. So that no one has to go through any of this. Due to his cancer being such a rare one, there is hardly any funding for a cure. 

 

We want to make a difference! Will you help?
