Ik start mijn tocht op de dag dat ik acht jaar oud had moeten worden. Omdat ik dat zelf niet meer kan wil ik jou vragen of jij me meeneemt op reis om de mooiste caches en plekjes van de wereld te zien?

I started my journey on the day a should have become eight years old. As I am not able to do myself, I would like to ask if you take me with you on your journey to see the most beautiful caches and places of this world? 

Mijn reismaatje is Chemo Kasper (wordt verzorgd door de V.O.K.K.). Samen met Radio Robbie heeft hij me bijgestaan in de strijd tegen kanker.

Ik heb mijn strijd niet mogen winnen, maar hoop via deze weg de andere kanjers een steuntje in de rug te geven.

Als je ze ook zou willen helpen dan kunnen onderstaande initiatieven je wellicht inspireren:

• De kanjerketting
• Kinderen kankervrij
• Lachen is het beste medicijn
• De ouders dichtbij

Chemo-Kasper is my traveling companion. He is a stuffed toy with a story that explains to little children what will happen to them in the proces of cancer chemotherapy. When he is fighting off the cancer cells, sometimes his glasses will get broken, so he can no longer distinguish between healthy and infected cell, thus making you feel sick.

Being only 2 years old, Kasper and his friend Radio-Robby (explaining the process of radiation therapy) have provided me some comfort during my struggle against Cancer, but unfortunately I could not win.I am hoping that my travels may inspire the hero's which are currently fighting!

The above links are Dutch foundations which make an effort to help out the children that are still fighting. I'm quite sure similar organisations exist in your country as well. Perhaps they may inspire you...
