Our daughter was diagnosed with a childhood cancer, classed as rare, Neuroblastoma in 2007 at the age of 2. We watched her with spirit and courage fight her battle for nearly 2 years. We spent over a year trying to raise funds to take her to America for potentially life saving treatment. But we sadly ran out of time as the disease took hold of our little girl around June 2009. Chelsea lost her brave fight on 9 August 2009, but before she passed away, we promised her we would help other poorly children just like her.Chelsea's Angels has been set up to raise funds for families whose children have been diagnosed with Neuroblastoma and other cancers classed as rare. Our mission is to ease the financial and emotional pressures of living with a child suffering from theses rare cancers by : PROVIDING THE CHILD AND PARENTS/SIBLINGS OF THAT CHILD WITH A RESPITE BREAK AWAY AND/OR SOME KIND OF RECREATIONAL HELP FOR THAT CHILD. PURCHASING OF ADDITIONAL MEDICAL EQUIPMENT TO FACILITATE THE CARE AND DAY TO DAY LIVING OF A CHILD WITH THESE RARE CANCERS.Chelsea's last wish before she passed away was that we, her Mummy & Daddy help other poorly children with this disease. For a 3 year old she was a very mature little girl who knew what she wanted. 
On Wednesday 16 November, we travelled up to the ITV studio's in Manchester to see the Jeremy Kyle Show being filmed. We had been asked to nominate a girl the charity had helped for a wish from the show. We chose a very special brave young lady, Megan and were invited to watch the filming. However, unbeknown to Emma (Chelsea's Mummy) there was a suprise for her too. So on Monday 19 December you can watch Megan be treated like a princess by the Jeremy Kyle show and also see Emma get a lovely suprise too.
A video tribute to the bravest angel we will ever know. Her older sister Shannon is singing a tribute song to Chelsea on the video too.
