Little ray of sunshine - Making wishes come true.
Iqra who is a 9 year old girl with complex congenital heart disease. Iqra had one wish and her one wish to go and visit the magnficient Disneyland Paris! Unfortunately going to Disneyland Paris is not an easy ride for a little girl with this kind of heart condition. To make this dream come true Iqra needed an oxygen concentrator which would enable her to breathe properly every minute.
Rays of Sunshine Children's Charity was formed in 2004 to help children who are living with serious or life-limiting illnesses between the ages of 3-18, across the United Kingdom.
It does this by:-
- Granting these childrens wishes however impossible the wish may seem
- Helping hospitals, hospices and specialist schools improve their facilities
With help and support Rays of Sunshine are able to turn wishes into happy memories for thousands of young people today.
The charity Little Ray of Sunshine makes wishes of very ill children come true every week and for Iqra's wish she will be able to go on her dream destination and meet all the Disney characters and see he dream become a reality - we will follow Iqra on her trip in April and she is very excited to be able to make this dream a reality.
Oxygen Worldwide have been providing medical oxygen for patients and clients who need medical oxygen to breathe without this life line these people could not travel to visit new places, see friends and family or be able to see the world and its many interesting and beautiful places. We look forward to finding out all about Iqra's trip and seeing her wish come true.

Health
During a flight, the high altitudes will cause the partial pressure of oxygen to naturally fall. Healthy people are largely unaffected, but if your oxygen levels at sea level are already low, flying can have serious implications. You may be advised by your doctor to increase your flow rate during the flight.
Overseas Flights
Before booking a flight, check with the airline to see if they can assist with your in-flight oxygen needs. Most airlines provide oxygen during the flight at an additional cost. The maximum flow rate provided by the airlines is normally restricted to 4 litres per minute.
Remember to check what the cost will be and also what documentation they require you to complete.
Planning in advance is always the key when booking your holiday.
Lungs
The British Lung Foundation is a great charity find out more by visiting their website at www.britishlungfoundation.org
Insurance
When abroad, you should travel with your European Health Insurance (EHIC - replacement for the E111) and ensure your insurance cover has your full medical history before you leave.
Details
If you are a frequent traveller with a particular airline then you can apply for a FREMAC medical card (Frequent Travellers Medical Card) to save a replication of medical forms, providing your circumstances do not change. FREMAC is issued by most airlines.

Be happy and live longer...
That’s what British researchers found when they asked nearly 4,000 people, aged 52 to 79, to spend a typical weekday recording their emotions and then checked back an average of five years later to find how many study participants were still alive. Those who had scored the highest “positive attitude” (PA) had a substantially longer survival rate.
Findings included:
*The “happiest” people were slightly younger and more likely to be male and married.
*Positive emotions overall were lowest at 7 a.m. and highest at 7 p.m.
*Ethnicity, paid employment, education and presence of serious disease made no significant difference in PA.
*Smoking was less common and physical activity higher among those with higher PAs.
*Happier people had higher opinions of their own health.
All signs point to cultivating an upbeat outlook if you want to add more birthdays to your life – and enjoy them
