She has just started her chemotherapy and, to try and cheer up her kids ( and herself) she contacted Notts to see if they would make a fuss of the kids at the Derby friendly which she was taking them to.
Well, what a magnificent response from Notts. They are going to give them the full hospitality package...meet the teams beforehand, go out in the pitch with them and lunch plus a few surprises.
I am quite emotional writing this as I am so proud of both my neice and Notts. Notts mean such a lot to me as it is such a strong link to my childhood and upbringing.
So it is wonderful to see our club go out of it's way to help a young family going through very hard times.
Thank you Notts County.
