I saw this on another forum and am sure that people on here would also like to help this little girl, who is 6 years old and has had a very difficult time following an operation in January to control her epilepsy.
Apparently, Millie has never had a birthday party or holiday, so if she could win this free trip to Disneyland Paris it would give her and her family a much needed boost.
Just click on this link:
http://www.cineworld.co.uk/up?nickname=babybelle
The name on the ballon is Kelly, who is her mum, and the idea is to add as many balloons as possible to her house so that she wins the trip. If you can forward this to friends and family it will really help - you can add a balloon each day by clicking on the link - closing date is November.
Millie's name on the 'high flyers' tag is 'babybelle' and at the moment she is in the lead.
Thanks, everyone! :)

She seems to be doing well at the moment, so I guess that lots of people on different forums have taken up this very worthy cause. Let's hope she remains at number 1!<:clap

Just added my daily balloons.
I saw on another forum that her mum has sent a letter of thanks to everyone and is overwelmed by all the support.
Gives a nice warm feeling knowing it is helping.

This all happened when we were away, and I wasn't checking how she was getting on. Its brilliant news, and just shows how powerful the internet can be when a story like this gets spread around.
She must be so excited! <:clap<:cheer<:cheer
