Ben

Young Ben would have been just 9 years old in September. 18 months ago he was diagnosed with a brain tumour. He was always brave and open about his illness and knew and accepted that he was  “going to meet Jesus soon”. He shared everything with his brother and sister. The Dream Factory discovered that he Wished for a TV and Playstation which he could play with his family. Just a few weeks ago The Dream Factory presented these to him with an extra surprise of a pair of budgies that we also knew he wanted. He was absolutely delighted and loved them immediately. Despite being full of beans when we met him, Ben’s condition deteriorated suddenly last week and he died last Thursday. Our thoughts are with his family. Here is a wonderful photo of Ben with one of the budgies.
