Mum's appeal for cash for daughter who might not reach her 20s

A mother has organised a fundraising day and raffle in another appeal to raise money for her seven-year-old daughter who doctors say won't live to see her twenties.

Megan, who is a big fan of This Country, said: "Paul donated to our fundraiser and he's been sharing everything for us. He even said he's gonna get us a signed T-shirt from Daisy.
