NEXT!

Hello again! Well what a very special day we had on Wednesday this week!
After the BEST Wellchild Awards, the fashion clothing store NEXT very generously offered each of the winners £150 to spend in NEXT!So we arranged to meet Natalie Robinson (16 years+ bravery award winner who lives in Sheffield) at NEXT in Meadowhall for our shopping sprees!
On arrival we were greeted by Sam Midgely who introduced us to our personal shoppers who would help us to spend our £150!
Natalie headed off to the women's section with her mum Loren, and me and Lew headed over to the childrens section!
It was great to see all the lovely clothes and to be able to choose cool outfits for Lew without thinking about the price tags! We got Lew a great selection of outfits, jeans, tops, pyjamas, some gloves and even a coat!
So thank you SO MUCH to NEXT for your very very generous gift. Lew has already been wearing his new items of clothing and we especially love the tiger pyjamas!
It was so lovely as well to catch up with Natalie and Loren and as before, Lew was totally smitten by Natalie and spent most of the afternoon gazing at her!
It was only our second time of meeting Natalie, but already she has a huge place in our hearts and we love her!
For Lew, Thursday was very cool as well! Samuel had gone to school as normal, but mid morning we had a phone call to say he had been injured playing hockey and he had to come home (his thumb had been hit hard with a hockey stick and was bleeding and swollen and so Samuel needed some treatment as he has haemophilia). Lewis loved having his big brother around and it really made the day very special for him!
Lewis wearing Samuel's school tie! Our friend Catriona, earlier this year, bought Lewis an iTeddy and I just wanted to say thank you again to Catriona, Neil, Tilly and Eliza for this super gift! It gets so much use! And here is a photo of Lew enjoying listening to his music on it just this week!

Thank you to everybody who has sent Lew pictures and cards this month! Here is a photo of Lew in front of his post wall! And DONT FORGET!

The Lewis Jeynes Fund

The Lewis Jeynes Fund was established to provide care and support to Lewis Jeynes and the success of the Fund has meant that we have also been able to purchase specialist equipment for other children with undiagnosed neurologically degenerative conditions in Doncaster and the UK.

Lewis and his friends around the UK all suffer from acute and undiagnosed life limiting or terminal conditions and very often specialist equipment is difficult to afford due to the changed circumstances at home. This is where the Fund can provide vital assistance to those in need. All of the proceeds of the Fund go straight towards helping Lewis, and other children and families like him and us.

Contributions should be sent to The Lewis Jeynes Fund, 15 Kentmere Drive, Doncaster, DN4 5FL or by BACS to Nat West Bank, “The Lewis Jeynes Fund” Account No. 35662565 Sort Code 60 06 39. You can also go into your local Nat West Bank and pay into the Fund over the counter.

i love you much (most beautiful darling) by e.e.cummings

i love you much (most beautiful darling), more than anyone on the earth and i like you better than everything in the sky -sunlight and singing welcome your coming although winter may be everywhere with such a silence and such a darkness, no one can quite begin to guess (except my life) the true time of year - and if what calls itself a world should have the luck to hear such singing (or glimpse such sunlight as will leap higher than high through gayer than gayest someone's heart at your each nearness) everyone certainly would (my most beautiful darling) believe in nothing but love
