About This Episode

In 2017 when 7-year-old Isla Tansey was diagnosed with terminal cancer she began a campaign to decorate 'Isla Stones' which she gave to her friends and family to hide. Isla lost her battle to childhood cancer DIPG in 2018 and her legacy in the form of 'Isla Stones' made their way all over the world. The Islastones Foundation is now a registered charity raising money for research into Childhood Cancer, as well as awarding grants to affected families. This episode released on International Childhood Cancer Day 2023, featuring Isla's parents Katherine & Simon, serves to raise awareness of childhood cancers, the Islastone campaign and provide support to any other families experiencing the loss of a child.
