#henrysodyssey is a fundraising project for an end of Leukaemia treatment adventure for 9 year old Henry with 50% of funds raised going to ‘Children with Cancer UK’ and 50% for the adventure.
All artworks have been generously donated by artists and makers across the globe. They are all A6 postcard sized and are original artworks. Mandell’s Gallery in Norwich kindly agreed to support Henry’s Odyssey by hosting the exhibition and sale of artworks between Wednesday 29th August to Sunday 2nd September 2018. The PV on Tuesday 28th August 2018 was a huge success with over 200 artworks sold and people queueing outside the gallery and down the street! The artworks can be viewed here alongside a list of artists and on Instagram at #henrysodyssey. Scroll to the bottom of this page to see artworks donated, if the artists name is revealed the artwork is sold, anonymous artworks are still available at £20. Email Sarah if you are interested in purchasing a mini masterpiece sarah.cannell1@gmail.com
Thrilled to announce that the final amount raised in 2018 was £10,172.49 with 383 artworks being donated in total. We paid £5086.24 to Children with Cancer UK to support their vital research into childhood cancers and took Hen on an adventure in May 2019. The Odyssey turned into a road trip through Europe for Henry and his Mum and Dad, far away from hospitals and chemo. They ended up driving through France and Spain, ending up in Murcia to visit one of Henry’s best friends, Alex. Henry wasn’t able to visit his friend during treatment and their reunion was truly uplifting showing the strength of friendship. They also swam in rivers, pools, lakes and the sea, feeling truly free after years of necessary limitations. Thank you to everyone who has supported #henrysodyssey you really made a difference.
Henry was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL) on January 9th 2016 when he had just turned 7. Within 48 hours his whole life had been turned upside down and an ambulance ride to Addenbrookes confirmed his diagnosis with intensive chemotherapy treatment starting immediately. The first 6 months of treatment threw relentless physical and psychological challenges at Henry with hideous side effects from chemo and steroids which caused a lot of pain, weight gain, anger and restricted mobility. Hen is now 2 years into 3 years of ‘maintenance’ treatment which for boys with ALL means 3 years of daily chemo, weekly antibiotics and blood tests, monthly check ups, 3 monthly chemo under sedation and emergency stays in hospital if Hen’s temperature goes over 38c. Henry has to be within 90 minutes drive of a UK hospital at any time for the duration of the 3 years. Despite all of these challenges Henry is doing very well, attending school and playing with his friends, to look at him now you wouldn’t know that he was on treatment for Leukaemia.
When Hen’s treatment finishes on 9th March 2019 he will still need to take antibiotics for another 6 months and will need monthly check ups but hopefully he will be able to rebuild his strength and start to live a normal life and catch up with his childhood. We really want to be able to raise money to make sure that Henry has an awesome summer seeing friends and visiting places which have been restricted for so long. Caring for a sick child has a big psychological impact on parents and family but also affects day to day work and finances and without some help we won’t be able to give Henry the end of treatment adventure that we think he deserves.
Along what has felt like an Odyssey through a strange world we have met many other children with cancer all dealing with intensive treatments with traumatic side effects. Some of these cancers can be cured, some can’t and some are managed but require even longer treatment with possible relapse. That is why we are fundraising jointly for ‘Children with Cancer UK’ as they are funding crucial research into finding cures, improving treatments and reducing long term side effects of all childhood cancers.
