The Dragons will be adapting their kit this evening to get behind a very special little boy.
Luca is a beautiful 3 year old who was struck down with Meningococcal Septicaemia in early January and his life changed forever…This horrendous disease ravaged every part of his body in hours and left him fighting for his life! With less than a 3% chance of survival
Luca pulled through however he was not unscathed… Luca lost both of his legs and all of his tissue, some muscle and skin below his hips. He has massive skin and tissue and muscle loss across his arms and shoulders and is now fighting to save his knees which have been severely damaged.
They are currently raising funds to cover the huge costs of equipment and prosthetics giving Luca every chance to excel in every aspect of his future
The boys will all be wearing a handprint for Luca on the back of our shirts tonight to support this young man who has really shown us all up in the way he has handled such extraordinary circumstances with a smile on his face.
Please join us in supporting Luca by liking it on facebook http://www.facebook.com/ForLuca1 and follow him on twitter @for_luca.
On Luca's facebook he asks that as many people as possible have their photo taken with the words ‘FOR LUCA’ written on their hand. Please can as many of you as possible try to get your photos done tonight during the game? The team will be doing the same after tonight's match.
