I’m 9 year's old and mum  told me about a little boy with an arm that is dangerously bent out of place in an island called Nauru. He really needs a doctor like mine or he’ll never be able to use his arm again, but he’s not allowed to come here for help.

I went to hospital in an ambulance for the first time last week. I fell off a huge log at camp and broke my arm just like the boy on Nauru. It hurt me so much I cried and screamed a lot until the doctors gave me medicine on the way to the hospital.

But I know that I was actually lucky. It’s in the news that this 12 yr old boy badly broke his arm on his bike last year but isn’t allowed the same help I  got from doctors. I’ve seen awful photos of him - his arm and fingers are in the wrong position and he can 't use his hand anymore.

His pain is so bad all the time that he can’t sleep. He's been in pain for a whole year now.

It’s just not fair. I’ve just got home from school and my mum and I started this petition. Please help us convince the people in charge to get this boy the medical help he needs.

Thanks,
Gemma and my mum Sally
