RMweb Premium Simon Lee Posted December 20, 2010 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted December 20, 2010 Guys, You may remember way back when, the trauma we went through when James was found to be suffering a brain tumor. Well this year as you can imagine has been something of a roller coaster, but now James is firmly on the way to full health. Today his courage and stoicism was recognised when he was awarded the Doncaster Superkids award for Triumph over Adversity. We all had an excellent afternoon at the Keepmoat Stadium where James was one of 10 local young people were honoured. As well as James there were some truly outstanding youngsters there, when you hear what some of them have done, caring for parents, rescuing other youngsters from fire, battling heart disease, it puts into perspective some of the things that we consider to be "important" in the world of model railways. If you live in the Doncaster area, full story will be in this weeks Doncaster Free Press or have a look at www.doncasterfreepress.co.uk on Thursday. Thanks for all your support earier in the year - it meant a lot to us all. Regards Simon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EddieB Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Like the previous poster, I'm fairly new here and have only recently found this thread, but I want to add to the messages of support and encouragement. It hardly bears thinking what Christmas would have been like had James suffered the worst. This year it's an extra special celebration, and may your whole family have great peace and happiness at this time of the year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dutch_Master Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 I could only echo the sentiments expressed by others, very pleased to hear the lad is taking a fast train to recovery Earlier you wrote that some of the tumour couldn't be removed. Given your message I take it this isn't a problem anymore and poses no risk for his well-being in future? Anyway, I'll raise a glass to the good news!
