> Dear Stuart,  
>  
> I really thought that you would turn up at Granny’s and say “Hi mum, it’s just a sick joke, I’m here”. I’m still here waiting for you, flower. I really can’t begin to tell you how much I’m going to miss sharing our moments together. I love you now, always and forever and I will never ever stop thinking about you.  
>  
> All my love always,  
>  
> Mum.

According to the page, money raised will go to the [Impact Young Heroes](http://www.youngheroes.org.uk/?ref=lichfieldlive.co.uk) charity which provides support, advice and specialist accomodation for young people living with cancer in the UK.
