Luke's dream
Date Published:
Luke’s Story
I hope this letter reaches you in good health and high spirits. Today, I come to you with a heart brimming with gratitude and hope, seeking your assistance for my beloved son, Luke. At the tender age of 13, Luke embodies remarkable resilience and courage despite grappling with the challenges posed by his neuromuscular condition.
Luke's journey has been marked by unwavering determination and an indomitable spirit. As a single mother without access to transportation, ensuring Luke's attendance at his training sessions has been an uphill battle. Yet, not once has he missed a day, showcasing his sheer dedication and passion for boxing. Boxing isn't merely a hobby for us; it's a legacy deeply embedded in our family's history. Despite our financial constraints, Luke's passion for the sport burns brightly, and his potential in the ring is undeniable. However, to sustain his dreams and safeguard his health, adequate equipment and supplements are imperative.
Our path has been rife with obstacles, setbacks, and uncertainties. Yet, through it all, Luke's resolve remains unshaken. Even when the odds seemed insurmountable, he persisted, defying expectations and steadfastly believing in himself. His recent progress, despite the myriad challenges he faces, stands as a testament to his strength of character and unwavering determination.
Annually, we embark on a journey to Red Cross Hospital in Cape Town for Luke's appointments, anxiously awaiting further DNA tests from the UK for the past two years. This journey serves as a poignant reminder of the hurdles we confront, yet it also underscores the unwavering support and resilience we've encountered along the way.
As a single mother, it pains me deeply to witness Luke's struggles and acknowledge that I cannot provide him with everything he needs. Hence, I humbly reach out to you today, seeking any assistance you can offer. Whether through donations, support, or simply spreading awareness, your contribution—no matter how modest—can make a world of difference.
Luke isn't merely my son; he is the very essence of my world. As his mother, my foremost wish is to afford him every opportunity for happiness and success. With your kindness and support, I am confident that we can turn this dream into a tangible reality.
Thank you from the depths of my heart for taking the time to read this letter and consider our plight. Your generosity and compassion would mean the world to us.
With sincere gratitude,
Ciska van Aswegen
