Who was Silas Pullen
Silas Pullen was a happy, healthy 10-year-old boy until he was diagnosed with a high-grade glioma in August 2012. The brain tumor was so aggressive that surgery and extensive chemotherapy could not contain its growth and Silas lost the battle against the tumour that he had named BOB, just after Christmas 2013. He was 11 years and 9 months old.
The parents of Silas Pullen are dear friends of Stephen Moyer and he had the pleasure of knowing Silas for all his 11 years. Stephen sang a song at his memorial service. “Simply the most delightful little boy”, Stephen told us about Silas. “We have an annual cricket match every year down in Kent that all our kids take part in, and from now on it is going to be in his honor.”
The Silas Pullen Fund
The family of Silas has set up a fund in his name with the Brain Tumour Charity to support research into the treatment and cure of childhood brain tumours. Silas inspired many people during his illness and his family hopes that his legacy will encourage others to continue to raise funds in his name.
We are happy to oblige Stephen Moyer’s request to include the Silas Pullen Fund in our fundraiser efforts and make a contribution to the fight against brain cancer.
