Being born and living with a life limiting illness (that leads your mum to write about it on the Internet) means that loads of people know your face, your diagnosis and other bits, but don’t really know you… So I though it would be nice for you readers to get to know our lad, who is more than a bubble boy. Actually I’m pretty sure Seth doesn’t consider himself to be ill. He just thinks we’re all a bit mental!
He may be stuck in a room with no where to go….but this boy still has things to do!
Seth has always been a stickler for the rules..(those of you who know me will realise how proud that makes me!!). Seth believes everything has its place and his playroom at home is managed through “one toy in…one toy out”. He often shakes his head with a tut and a sigh when other children have been in and (naturally) trashed the place.
This acceptance of rules is the bane of his fathers life at times as he is often told “not like that daddy” and daddy is often on the receiving end of a disapproving grunt and stare if something hasn’t been done as it should. Even his daily injection (which he hates) if it isn’t done on time daddy gets a good telling off!!
The bane of our lives…….firman sam – or anything fireman related….
Favourite pyjamas (standard)
Christmas list – everything fire or rescue related from the argos catalogue
His BEST days EVER – a day at the firestation
Showing the fireman how its done
A small part of his fire engine collection. This child serious has every fire engine ever made…EVER!
Th new addition to his rescue addiction – paw patrol!
He’s genuinely a very affectionate boy:
Totally besotted with his baby brother who arrived October 2014
Adores his daddy
and the dog……who appreciates it!
…like REALLY appreciates it
and a bit of a plonker…..
Throwing confetti at mummy at our wedding
CHUNK!
Excited for Peppa Pig world
Loves nothing more than having his hair cut….but ONLY by Vicky!
and he will give anything a go…
even a bit of posing…
were just proud that he makes the most of his life.

Hello Ma’am from the States! The Pacific Northwest to be specific. I wanted to let you know how much Seth’s story touched me, I couldn’t imagine my little brother going through this so well, he is a trooper I can tell. Is there anyway to send him something nice? Like Paw Patrol toys or something to the hospital? I came into a bit of money and I would really like to send him something, Thank you for your time!

I in a way can relate to you. I spend a lot of time in and out of the hospital. Every doctor I go to I get the same answer. We don’t know why you have seizures but here is another medication that might stop them. I was diagnosed with epilepsy when I was 13 years old. I refuse to accept that I have this awful disease. I am 16 and there are so many things that I cannot do that all of my friends can. I can’t drive, swim (without a life jacket) ride a bike, & other things. I am praying for you. I want you to grow up to be a healthy 16 year old boy. I want you to be able to do the things I cannot. No, one should be robbed of their childhood from sickness. These are the best years of you’re life. So many people are supporting you. I believe that you can make it through this. God bless you & your family little one. 😊

Hello Seth !
I just saw your video and I am truly touched. As a doctor-to-be, it is sad to know that there are currently not better possibilities or treatments available and you have to suffer from such grave side-effects. I hope, my fellow colleagues around the world will find a good cure and help you to become an even more wonderful grown up man. I really adore your spirit and your cute little face! I know it’s hard but keep on fighting. There are so many people supporting you from all over the world and you have a wonderful family who loves and cares for you deeply.
I am so sorry I watched your video too late and since I am currently in South Korea I do not have my yellow shirt with me. But I will take a picture as soon as I return on Easter and send it to you. Maybe you will still have some room on your wall 🙂
Much much love and strength to you and your family,
