"Harry was diagnosed with Ewings sarcoma in the Radius bone (lower arm) on the 9 July 2007. He was only three and half-years-old.
"Harry's had a rough ride since 9 July. We have been in hospital most of the time with lots of infections, the main one being mucositis. He's had chemotherapy for the last eight months. In December he had the Radius bone removed from his arm but the tumour was not dead and he now has to have radiotherapy as well as more chemo.
"We are still all fighting for Harry and would like to thank CLIC Sargent for their help and support as well as the Nurse and Doctors at Bristol Children’s Hospital, who are doing a fantastic job.
"We have set up an Especially For You fund in Harry’s name as we would like to give something back for all the help we have received. Harry’s fund is a great way to involve our family and friends and work colleagues who are keen to offer help.
"We are planning a few things to fundraise for Harry’s fund, which will include a sky dive, a skittles night and a friend of ours is doing a sponsored weight loss.
"Harry’s fund is our way of saying ‘Thank You’ for all the help and support we have received."
