Thank you to our ambassador Stewart Manning for sponsoring the T Shirt competition in memory of Steven a young patient with leukaemia Stewart supported in his GP career. Read below to find out the meaningful story behind this competition:
"My name is Stewart Manning. I retired from a career in Leeds as a General Practitioner in 2012
Currently I am Chairman of Yorkshire Cancer Community and a Volunteer Fundraiser for St Gemma ‘s Hospice in North Leeds. Recently I became an Ambassador for the Ella Dawson Foundation
I looked after many people as a Doctor but one person is always prominent in my memories and he was the bravest patient that it was my privilege to meet.
He has been a major inspiration for my Charity work.
His name was Steven Tottie and I diagnosed his childhood Leukaemia. After chemotherapy he had a bone marrow transplant. Unfortunately he had a comparatively rare outcome. He developed “Graft Versus Host Disease". This is where the foreign bone marrow attacks the patient’s body. Failure is more commonly due to the patient rejecting the donor bone marrow
This outcome left Steve with multiple severe medical problems. He never complained and whenever I saw him on a regular basis he was cheerful and positive , He grew up into adulthood with these problems. During his long illness there were no specific Charities specifically for young adults aged 18 to 30 who had Cancer. I know if The Ella Dawson Foundation had existed during these times it would have made a great difference to Steve’s Quality of Life.
Steve made me a painted Canvas of Rock Bands (because he knew of my Musical tastes) which hung in my GP Surgery for many years and now has pride of place in my office. After Steve passed away he left me one of his treasured possessions in his will along with a note that still brings tears to my eyes .His final message to me was "You are one of the good guys".
My bequest was an “Alien" which resides next to the Canvas in my office
I am proud to be an ambassador for The Ella Dawson Foundation and I am delighted to sponsor The Ella Dawson Foundation T Shirt competition in his memory.
