Reuben is our two year old boy who suffered a stroke on the 1st May 2024. We are fundraising to help him overcome this and get him on the road to recovery.
What an emotional day. When
@eirancashin
took Reuben to say thank you to the
#dcfcfans
there may have been a tear.
@dcfcofficial
made our promise to Reuben 8 hours after his stroke come true. They said it was ‘unlikely’ he would make a recovery, but at DCFC we never give up!
We made the trip to Pride Park today from
@Childrens_Trust
to witness
@dcfcofficial
dismantle Bristol 3-0.
Reuben is three weeks down in his rehab and is doing well. He has had Botox injections and daily rehab sessions. Keep the train chugging!

today to watch

it was great to say hello to some of the people that have supported us. Fitness in the bank for the players. We tried some drills when we got home. A plan never survives first contact.

Wishing Reuben the very best in the next step of his rehabilitation journey. You are a superstar!

and hope that others feel the same. We are Derby, Stronger Together!
Reuben has settled into his rehabilitation in Tadworth at the Children’s Trust which specialises in brain injury. He is doing daily sessions of physio, occupational, speech therapies and a weekly hydrotherapy session.

Reuben still can’t move his right arm but the first step is to acknowledge it’s still there and encourage him to include it and help himself with two handed tasks.
Reuben has been sent a get well soon card from his pre school class at nursery.
One thing I noticed looking at this picture is that his smile is so much better than it was two weeks ago.

I’m sure you’re joking but…. Vickers gave Reuben his gloves at the training ground. He also came out to have a kick about with him and Ivy. He is a fantastic human being and great role model. Someone who is professional and who gives 100% 4 the shirt which is all we can ask for
What a fanstastic win today
#DCFC
and I am so happy for Josh Vickers who was immense and a deserved MOM. Reuben was concerned when
@eirancashin
went down 😔 but we were relieved to see him up and moving shortly after. A great win and great effort from everyone!

I know this is a results business and winning means so much to us all. However
@dcfcofficial
and football are so much more than just about winning. It’s about representing the city and community with pride. Let’s get behind the lads and girls! We are Derby!

Thank you
@AdamLegzdins
for all of the work you have been doing behind the scenes. It has made Reuben’s day and I just wanted to send our gratitude. We are trying to raise as much awareness for Reuben and Paediatric Strokes.

Reuben has been using fidget toys to work on his right hand and arm control. When Reuben concentrates his right hand contracts so giving him a ball helps him create new pathways to make it a voluntary movement moving forward. Reps! Reps!

Reuben tried to hide away from the

loss this week against the blades. Gutted with the narrow defeat but respectable against that oppo! We go again this week with more rehab
@Childrens_Trust
then we head to Pride Park for Norwich!

Reuben has made a good start to the week and the new AFO (Ankle Foot Orthosis)has really helped him.
The boy is so driven and he wanted to score a goal and nobody was getting in his way…..

Reuben suffered a stroke 5 weeks ago and lost his speech and movement on his right side. With early intervention we might be able to get it back the window is 3-6 months. Surely it’s in the tax payers interest to allow him to contribute to society rather than draw from it.

Josh Vickers made a huge impact on our daughter Ivy. Reuben has the physical signs of trauma but Ivy has the emotional trauma. Ivy loves goalkeeping and the
