About Ben
Ben is one of a set of twins born on 2nd October 2007. He started having seizures at around 6 months old and in June 2007 (8 ½ months) he was diagnosed with a large left sided tumour. He was immediately admitted to hospital (royal Manchetser Children’s Hospital, Pendlebury) where he spent the next 10 weeks. The two pictures show Ben during his treatment and more recently in December 2008. |

Throughout the time spent in hospital Ben and his mum and dad received help from a variety of sources and experienced at first hand the usefulness of information and provided by a number of charities, the need for up to date equipment and the massive benefit of parent accommodation at a children’s hospital.
