What is RAM?
On 15 June 2017 Bobo tragically passed away after fighting the disease for 19 months. He was only 13 years old.
Bobo was lionhearted. He showed a strength and determination ahead of his years. It broke our hearts and changed our lives. No child and their family should to go through the same pain and heartache we went through. Brain tumours are the biggest killer in children. This statistic needs to change, it needs to change so children with DIPG have a future.
