Leukemia research-Susan Eastwood A Teesside family's gift to thousands There can be few things more soberingly unfair than a child born to die young, but when Susan Eastwood from Middlesbrough died aged 7, her parents chose to do something exceptional and have changed tens of thousands of lives in the process. Susan Eastwood got ill in the late 1950s, but the local community gathered around in support, even though, back then, most people had never heard of leukaemia. Susan's friends gave her a music box, locals at the nearby pub had a whip round and bought her a dog, Whiskey, when they learnt of her illness. In 1960, Susan was due to open a local garden fete. Her parents had bought her a new dress, which she loved, but shortly beforehand, her health began to fail and she wasn't well enough to open the fete. Susan was buried in the clothes bought for the fete. Her sister Sylvia was 19 when Susan died. She spoke to Alistair Campbell, Tony Blair's former special adviser and fundraising chairman of Leukaemia Research, for the BBC's Inside Out programme. She told how she remembers her brown eyes, how she was a "little giggly" girl who used to love going on the swing in the back garden and being pushed as high as she could go. The drugs made her face puff out and she'd get tired with all the treatment, she'd say "I think I will have a little sleep on my bed." Her parents would do anything to make her feel better, or be happy. They used to go on trips to the lake district and the seaside. Much of her time was spent playing with Whiskey the dog. After Susan Susan's parents wanted something good to come out of their daughter's death and dedicated the rest of their lives to raising money for a cure. The family were constantly thinking of new ways to raise money. The music box bought by her friends was the first thing to be auctioned off. Sylvia and her mum working on their handkerchiefs. Hankerchiefs in a "peak formation" were all the rage for men to wear in the breast pockets of their suits at the time. Sylvia and her mum used to spend the evening stitching these to bits of card so they could look smart in suits. In one money raising venture her father dressed as a baby with a dummy in his mouth and was pushed around in a pram to get donations. They also sold Christmas cards before charity cards were commonplace. Their parents' aim was always to spend as little money as possible on administration, so the maximum amount could be put toward research, a rule that stills applies today at the fund. How the Fund Started. The Eastwoods read an article in "The People" highlighting the importance of research into childhood diseases at Great Ormond Street Hospital. David and Hilda wrote to the Director of the Institute saying "If we can achieve something then we shall know that our daughter died for a reason." A year after Susan died, her parents had raised £3000 for the fund. On the 9th of December 1961 David and Hilda Eastwood attended the official opening of the first unit in the country dedicated to childhood leukaemia research at Great Ormond Street. The Work Today As part of the Inside Out programme, Alistair Campbell met 10 year old Rachel Paul from Teesside, who has survived 2 bouts of leukaemia. Rachael Paul and her teddy, Belgium. Her mum Pamela's instinct that something wasn't quite right went back to when Rachel was 14 months old. She was diagnosed with leukaemia (AML) in 1999 and spent the following months receiving treatment in hospital. She then relapsed in November 2000. Doctors tried everything to get Rachel into remission again and she was having so much chemotherapy and radiotherapy that she had to be given growth hormones. Once in remission, a donor was found on the Anthony Nolan register. Pamela remembers the 70 ml of "pink liquid" - the bone marrow - that was injected into Rachel. She and her husband started off the syringe that put her back on the road to recovery. Rachel also received a teddy from the anonymous Belgian donor.

Back in America Published: February 20, 2008 From onstage last night (Feb 19), amid the pandemonium in front of 14,000 screaming fans at a packed Los Angeles Forum, Iron Maiden announced the first leg of their eagerly anticipated North American summer tour. Tickets for Iron Maiden's current "SOMEWHERE BACK IN TIME -- WORLD TOUR 08" dates at the Los Angeles Forum and New Jersey's Izod Centre sold out months in advance, the band are delighted to announce they are coming back for more major USA concerts this summer which will take them to a number of cities they have not played in many years along with a return to the Los Angeles area with 2 nights at the 16,000 capacity Verizon Amphitheatre on Friday May 30 and Saturday May 31. Tickets for the majority of these shows will go on sale to the public on Saturday, March 1st. A special pre-sale will be made available exclusively to members of the Iron Maiden fan club, who will also be eligible to enter to be 'First to the stage barrier'.

Filmed and recorded over four spectacular nights at Long Beach Arena on the "Powerslave Tour" in 1985, this has long been a benchmark for rock concert videos and live albums, and the CD remains one of the biggest-selling live albums ever with sales in excess of six million worldwide. With the video having been largely unavailable for many years, the fan's massive interest in this legendary concert continues to this day with the DVD debuting at No. 1 on charts around the world (including The UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, Denmark and Finland), as well as No 2 on the Billboard USA Chart and in Canada. This tour revisits the band's history by focusing almost entirely on their classic 80's period in both choice of songs played and the stage set, which is based around the legendary Egyptian Production of that 'Powerslave Tour' as portrayed on the Live After Death DVD. This will arguably be the most elaborate and spectacular show the band have ever presented. Furthermore the band intends to bring along for this summer leg of the tour the colossal mummy of Eddie, as featured on the Live After Death DVD, along with various other elements of the show that would not fit on their 757 on the first leg of this tour, which included the shows at the Forum and Izod Centre. Sadly no jumbo has a door big enough to fit in such a massive and imposing monster!!! Says vocalist Bruce Dickinson ; "We are all greatly looking forward to getting back to see our fans in places like Texas, the South West and Seattle where we haven't played for quite some time. And for this leg we will be able to bring along all Eddie's toys which we couldn't get on our plane during the first leg. We are all having a great time on this tour and really can't believe the excitement it is creating round the world and the huge numbers of people who are turning out to see us. It makes for a really very exciting time for all of us, fans and band alike" Tags: Iron Maiden Different World Matter Life Death Heavy Metal Rock Bruce Dickinson Steve Harris Adrian Smith Nicko Dave |
