Lion 4 Isla

Where do I start!!!
 
Today’s Brentwood half marathon was cancelled due to the inclement weather and will not be rescheduled.
I took all the donations on the premise that I would do the forfeits I put in place.
So I will honour them all.
 
So now on Saturday 31st March, I will run a much more dangerous route from Cold Blow Lane to the Olympic Stadium via the New Den and the Boleyn ground wearing full West Ham kit and having claret and blue dyed hair. I will do crosses hammers at the finish where I will meet up with some of Isla’s fundraisers and then take in the West Ham v Southampton game 
 
I’ll be surprised if I don’t get a whack from someone along the route, more so through Millwall territory in Bermondsey!!
 
I hope this will satisfy all of those who have donated.
Wish me luck, I need it!!
 
I thank you all once more for your incredible support

I’ve quoted that at £200,000, I’d close the page at £199,000

#Cancer has no colours 
 
Firstly hello all and I hope this is ok with the moderators to post.
 
My name is Tony Munday, I am a 49 year old unfit Millwall supporter (someone has to be) who is heading for the knackers yard. On Sunday March 18th I am running the Brentwood half marathon  on behalf of a 3 year old little girl called Isla Caton who is suffering from the same horrible disease that took Bradley Lowery the boy who captured the nations hearts.
The disease is Neuroblastoma and the treatment for this is only available in America. 
On Tuesday young Isla had an operation to move a tumour from her brain and now goes back to chemo treatment to clear the cancer.
Through the Bradley Lowery foundation the family need to raise £400,000.
 
Here’s the catch.
 
Isla Caton is born into a staunch West Ham family and as a Millwall supporter I am using this as leverage to raise as much money for her as possible.
The rivalry between the two clubs is huge and I pray they lose every week.
 
I set my original target at £1000 and declared I would run in a West Ham shirt if reached. Due to having many West Ham friends who I have wound up over the years I reached the £1000 in 24 hours.
I added targets
£2000 to run in full kit
£3500 to do crossed hammers at finish line
£7000 to run with dyed claret and blue hair 
I’m currently at approx £4,100.
 
Normally I wouldn’t even look at a West Ham kit let alone wear one but I’m prepared for the stick I’ll get for the rest of my life so this amazing little girl gets what she needs. My pain will be nothing compared to what she is going through.
It’s a very small sacrifice for me to make.
 
I am joining forums of all 92 league clubs to post this message and hoping the football family come together to help smash this target and help send this incredibly brave little girl to America to save her life by donating to my just giving page.
 
In my eyes cancer has no colours especially in children.
Isla’s twitter address is @islasfight, feel free to look and see what she’s going through
 
Here is my just giving page below, hopefully you will find it in your hearts to donate to the cause through my run.
Forget the £7,000 target lets smash it to as much as possible, this angel deserves a chance at life 
 
I thank you all so much in advance

Two more days until I run into the valley of death!   Look out for the Goals pull out in The Sun this weekend, it’s possible there will be a bit in there about Isla, the run and the coming together of football fans to raise this money.

Well done mate. Done the whole footballing world proud. 

Well don't, that's a brilliant effort and you should be really proud of what you have done. 

Well done, great stuff

No need for you to thank us, Tony! I thank YOU for your courage and kindness. I wish Isla all the very best.

Quick update, we’re almost at £13,000!!   I want to thank again for your support, donations and spreading the word.   I’ll be posting pics next week after the run to give you all a good laugh   Thanks again

I met young Isla and her family last night for the first time when I went to collect the West Ham kit from their house. A very very humbling experience.   Isla’s parents are so strong and Isla was running around like any normal 3 year old just a week after an op to remove a brain tumour with the only visible signs being her face and head are totally bruised from the surgery   An inspiration for all

Now up to £14,700!!!

@Lion 4 IslaAll the best for the run on 31 March. As you wrote earlier, when it comes to cancer there are no colours and football and all the rivalries pale into insignificance. My Mum comes from Bermondsey so I know parts of the area but it has changed a hell of a lot over the years.

Where do I start!!!
 
Today’s Brentwood half marathon was cancelled due to the inclement weather and will not be rescheduled.
I took all the donations on the premise that I would do the forfeits I put in place.
So I will honour them all.
 
So now on Saturday 31st March, I will run a much more dangerous route from Cold Blow Lane to the Olympic Stadium via the New Den and the Boleyn ground wearing full West Ham kit and having claret and blue dyed hair. I will do crosses hammers at the finish where I will meet up with some of Isla’s fundraisers and then take in the West Ham v Southampton game 
 
I’ll be surprised if I don’t get a whack from someone along the route, more so through Millwall territory in Bermondsey!!
 
I hope this will satisfy all of those who have donated.
Wish me luck, I need it!!
