PLEASE LISTEN TO TOMMY'S STORY - HE IS JUST AN EVERYDAY BOY WHO DREAMS TO HEAR LIFE TALK
Tommy was born early due to complications and was born without any ears. Tommy's dad, Carl Leech, was a sergeant in the Coldstream Guard and he was killed in an accident when Tommy was one year old.
Tommy, who will be ten in February, and his mother Lisa Leech now live alone in Hemlington and his mother has long term health problems.
Tommy's inner ear does work but it's difficult for him to hear anything. To best express the level of Tommy's hearing it has been described as "trying to listen to a conversation whilst under water".
Tommy wears a hearing aid and attends a mainstream school – Hemlington Hall Primary. Tommy has therapy and can speak, which is a massive achievement in itself as the hospital said he would never be able to speak.
After several operations, Tommy has a bone anchored hearing aid with a skin graft over the top and it was after this Tommy could hear his first sounds.
It is unfortunate that the NHS cannot perform any operation to open the ear canal and attach ears. The option to go private at Great Ormond Street Hospital can only provide Tommy with synthetic ears that will not help him to hear and are for cosmetic purposes only.
The only way for Tommy to get fully functioning ears is to go to Germany and consult surgeon Professor Ralph Siegert, who will carry out the operation.
Each ear will need two to three surgery sessions and it is only possible to operate on one side at a time.
If all goes to plan the first of the operations will take place in April 2008 and continue so that he is ready in time for secondary school in September 2009.
The operation will cost a staggering £50,000 and Make a Child Smile will be supporting this fundraising campaign. If you feel you want to support this campaign too, there are various ways for you to get involved.
Tommy & his devoted Mum just need 50,000 smiles to change his life forever. May we ask in kindness that people would be kind to print this poster out and rally their friends to contribute in their own individual smiley way?
Please visit the TFM Make a Child Smile charities website and read all about Tommy's progress and how to become a brick. Alternatively please e-mail Sandra or Peter.
The charity is our adopted smile and we will assist your every request immediately!

A GUARANTEED PROFIT OF AT LEAST £36.50 ON SOUTHEND v DONCASTER
Did you know that it is possible to win money on Friday evening's League One Play-Off clash between Southend and Doncaster, whatever the result?
The game kicks off at 7.45pm and we can guarantee you a profit of at least £36.50, whatever the result of the match. All you have to do is follow the simple instructions below and then sit back and enjoy the game. At full-time, you will be at least £36.50 better off, whatever the result of the match.
We must point out that if you want to take this bet, you should do it now because if the odds change, then the figures here will be invalidated. If they have changed, let us know and we will rework the bet for you.
You can still do this if you have a Betfair account but your overall profit will be reduced by £25.00 as you won't receive the £25.00 cashback as an existing account holder.
If you are unsure about this bet, you are most welcome to call us on 01642 223229 and we will help you as much as we can.
We're going to lay out a total of £71.00 on the Southend v Doncaster match and we will collect £107.50 if Doncaster win, £107.50 if Southend win and £107.81 if it's a draw. That's a minimum profit of 51%, a much higher interest rate than you will get in any high street bank.
Here's how it's done. Just follow these simple instructions.
1. Open an account with Coral. It is really important that you enter the bonus code of CORALTD when prompted. This is to ensure that you receive your bonus.
Open an account with Betfair. It is really important that you enter the promotional code of BFB425 when prompted. This is to ensure that you receive your bonus.
Open an account with Extrabet

3. Now make the following bets.
Place £20.00 on Doncaster at 2.75 (7/4) with Coral.
Coral will now add a £10.00 bonus to your account. Place this on Doncaster as well. You will now have £30.00 riding on Doncaster.
Back the draw with £26.00 at 3.3 (9/4) (or higher if available) with Betfair.
Place £25.00 on Southend at 2.15 (23/20) with Extrabet .
Extrabet match your first bet up to £25 so you will now have £50.00 riding on Southend.

You have temporarily laid out a total of £71.00 on the Southend v Doncaster match. I stress, temporarily... Now sit back, crack a beer open and enjoy the match.
4. Here's what happens at the end of the game.
If Doncaster win, you collect £107.50. That's £82.50 from Coral plus a £25.00 cashback from Betfair.
If it's a draw, you collect £107.81. That's £82.81 from Betfair plus a £25.00 cashback from Betfair.
If Southend win you collect £107.50. That's £82.50 from Extrabet plus a £25.00 cashback from Betfair.
5. This means that the worst case scenario on the Southend v Doncaster match is no draw and you make £36.50 profit. However, if it is a draw you make £36.81. That's a minimum profit of 51%, a much better rate of interest that you would get at any high street bank or building society.

We guarantee this bet
It's understandable that some people will not believe that it is possible to do this. "What's the catch?" I hear you asking. My answer to that question is that we have been publishing arbitrage bets for four seasons now and literally hundreds of people have profited from following the advice on these pages.
Only twice has our refund guarantee been triggered and that was when we did all the figures wrong and sent refunds out to those who had followed our advice and made a small loss.
Our refund guarantee works like this. If this bet doesn't work like we say it will and you end up out of pocket, we will refund your losses. Simple as that.
That means that you simply cannot lose on this, whatever happens and even if we messed up the numbers.
The only stipulation here is that you must click on the links on this page to be eligible for the refund guarantee, not that you'll be needing to claim anyway. Just enjoy the profit and stay posted for many more of these throughout the season.
