November 30, 2007 - London, -- The 2Simple Trust has intensified its campaign to raise funds to help young children suffering from a rare cancer, neuroblastoma.
The trust has released a single for Christmas entitled ‘Thanks for Loving Me’ which can be downloaded for just £1.95 by visiting the 2Simple website and following the links to the Jack Brown Appeal.
Jack Brown is one of the young victims of this cancer who is being supported by the trust. The song by Phil Ryan, who performed with The Animals in Moscow, is also available on CD for £5.00
According to cancerbackup.org.uk, fewer than 100 children are diagnosed with neuroblastoma in the UK each year. Most children who get this cancer are younger than five years old.
Neuroblastoma is a cancer of specialised nerve cells, called neural crest cells. These cells are involved in the development of the nervous system and other tissues.
Neuroblastoma can occur anywhere in the body, but most often occurs in the adrenal gland in the abdomen (tummy). The adrenal glands are specialised glands, which are found above the kidneys. They release hormones to maintain blood pressure, and enable us to respond to stress.
In some children, the neuroblastoma can occur in nerve tissue in the neck, chest, or around the spinal cord.
