Help with funeral funds for Bradley

Donation protected
In 2016 Bradley, Sharon's son, was violently hurt by a man who was supposed to protect him, his own father. At the age of 7 months, Bradley was rushed to Leeds LGI, where it was later discovered he had shaken baby syndrome.
This left him with Catastrophic head injuries, quadriplegic cerebral palsy, severe epileptic seizures, a twisted spine, and complete blindness due to being injured so severely, his optics nerves had been snapped. all of this lead to a prognosis of a life being confined to a wheelchair, body brace dependent, no voice, no independence & a completely altered future ahead of him.
His father pleaded guilty to GBH, sentenced to 4yrs and served 2.
whilst this was at court Sharon had to learn how to care for a severely disabled child who would depend on her for life, Sharon's life had changed forever.

When Bradley was hurt, sharon became his eyes, His voice, his life force and his fiercest advocate, Nothing could
ever happen to Bradley because Sharon was always there to protect him every step of the way...
Sharon is the very definition of 'a mother's love'. As her best friends, we want to say that, to us, Sharon is inspirational. She is a warrior. she is everything we would want our mum to be.
In february 2022, Bradley was admitted to the LGI for complications due to his injuries. He ended up staying in hospital for 18months with multiple operations and near fatal sepsis. throughout this time, Sharon was supported by Bradley's consultant, the wonderful Mr. Arawanti, he cared for Bradley like he was his own and he guided Sharon through the every medical procedure and every emergency.
Sharon traveled to Leeds LGI from whitby every day to care for Bradley whilst also caring for her family at home.
throughout that 18months experience, Sharon fiercely protected her Bradley, cared for him and dotingly dedicated her life to him.

Bradley came home from hospital in july 2023 full of smiles & joy, excited to get back home to listen to his beloved Miley cyrus music.

Sharon, Bradley and their whole family began to live again with hope and happiness.

On monday 21st October, Bradley was admitted to the children's Rainbow Ward at scarborough hospital.

Bradley had a virus and consequently suffered a severe epileptic seizure. Following this Bradley had two heart attacks and never came home.

Bradley's mother, step father and siblings are now struggling to come to terms with his sudden death. we, as friends and family, wish to remove the unforseen expense regarding Bradley's funeral and any additional expenses associated with planning a funeral. Sharon is our sister, our close friend, and we aim to be the strength she needs to help support her and Bradley's family through this incredibly emotional time.

please note this is only a snippet of the things Bradley has endured in his 9years. we had to try and keep it short, which is difficult when you're writing about an absolute warrior of a child.
