Burnham couple to run half marathon for 10 year-old cancer sufferer

-

A Burnham-On-Sea couple will be running a half marathon this weekend to raise funds for a 10 year-old boy suffering from a rare disease.

Joe Laoutaris, right, has been diagnosed as suffering Ewing’s Sarcoma, a disease in which cancer cells are found in the bone or in soft tissue.

Young couple Nikki Stent and Stephen Hall are raising money for Clic Sargent to help Joe and will be running the Bridgwater Half Marathon on Sunday 8th September.

Nikki told Burnham-On-Sea.com: “Please dig deep and support this incredible cause. At the beginning of the year, this gorgeous 10 year-old boy from Burnham was diagnosed with Ewings Sarcoma and despite this horrific ordeal, he has been an inspiration to all!”

“He still manages to smile each and every day, making very little fuss, despite the continual Chemotherapy and Blood transfusions he endure. So, please do support me in raising as much money as physically possible!” To support the couple’s fundraiser for Joe, click here.
