Sethi: petit prince

Sethi and mum Azizah
Taglines has featured the story of Sethi many times over the years. The little boy suffers from a rare condition which attacks the production of bone marrow and hence healthy blood and readers have followed his story and offered help where possible. At four years old in a Paris clinic his marrow was removed then he was treated with chemo-therapy and kept in a sterile bubble before the marrow was replaced. Now six he has started at normal school and loves being a pupil. But Sethi is not cured and needs blood transfusions every three weeks, but his life is transformed. This weekend he is an ambassador for the Telethon which raises money for research into such rare conditions and provides help where it is needed.
We will be contributing by having our car washed by the Laguepie pompiers (provided their karchers are not frozen). There are opportunities to contribute at an event near you.
