Bring Me The Horizon keyboardist, Jordan Fish, and frontman, Oli Sykes, are to climb Mount Kilimanjaro for Friends of PICU (Pediatric Intensive Care Unit) for PICU at Southampton Hospital.
The two will embark on their journey to climb the mountain, which has a height of 5895 metres, in January over the course of eight days.
The climb has been organised to raise money for the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit at Southampton Hospital after Jordan Fish’s son was cared for there after suffering from a brain haemorrhage just four days after he was born. Jordan explained further on his JustGiving page the reasons why he wants to do this, and how both Basingstoke Hospital and Southampton Hospital helped stabilise his son’s condition.
“On the evening of Sunday 21st August, our 4 day old baby Eliot suffered what we eventually found out was a Brain Haemorrhage. My wife Emma and I reacted as quickly as we could as soon as we began to feel his crying changed from what you would consider ‘normal’ to something else. We called an ambulance in the early hours of the morning and did our best to keep him calm, awake and alive.”
