You Did It!

Poorly Nathaniel Nabena has been given his first dose of chemotherapy – thanks to generous Sunday People readers.

The nine-year-old was admitted to London’s Great Ormond Street Hospital this week after donations poured in to help meet the initial £70,000 cost of his treatment.

Nathaniel, from Nigeria, was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia during a medical trip to the UK in November and his family were told a stem cell transplant was the only hope they had to save him.

Now they are desperate to raise the total cost of his treatment, which amounts to £825,000.
