Christopher learnt how to do his brother physio & suction to clear his airways most kids his age would of been so caring he also did the great north run for scope & is doing it again this year. Christopher picked the music for Josephs funeral & played a guitar solo afterwards in front of everyone. Christopher kept us going even though he was grieving himself he is our hero.
