What I’m confused about is why they are raising money??

they already have a million that could make such a difference right now to so many ill children fighting cancer .

also is this charity not about helping other families so far it’s just about ash and bike rides I’m confused with it all . I know bike rides are his coping strategies but at some point he will need to do more for the charity to keep it going . i Know it’s azaylia s foundation but it is to help other families and so far I have not seen anything for other families . Surely sharing some stories For other children would be a help . My friends little boy has cancer for the third time he’s only four so sharing his story and others Would be nice but it seems to just be about ash the let’s go champ which I’m also confused about

sorry if I don’t make sense I’m just confused
A million pound doesn’t actually go that far when it’s for medical care. Just look at the states and how much breaking a leg or something costs if you don’t have insurance.

if they sit back and spend the money, they then have to start from scratch raising more. I understand that whilst she’s in the forefront of people’s minds they are trying to keep the momentum going but they could perhaps make it less the Ashley cain and his brother show and more kids in need show.

The fact they stayed there n separate hotel rooms. She stayed in a room with two single beds. One remained unoccupied the whole night. She was talking about Ashley and the boys having massages somewhere (I’m assuming in their separate rooms) and how she wanted one but had no idea what was going on. Bless her she stayed up drinking irn bru, Pepsi and tea cakes with us on Instagram live. One thing I will say though is that she’s GREAT at ignoring negative messages. She won’t even entertain the trolls or acknowledge them. Inside it must hurt though.
It just doesn’t even make any sense. At least try to pretend to give a shit about her and book her into the same hotel. What was the point in her being there if she’s in a different hotel, up on her own at night whilst Ashley and the team eat together, Stay in the same hotel and get massages. He might as well just tell her to not come along at all the way he is acting isn’t far off that

No matter what they feel now they were BOTH her parents and they BOTH run the foundation, it’s just super odd to be staying in seperate hotels and not even having meals together as part of the foundation team even if it’s not as a couple

Can someone help me understand what how riding a bike up the country is benefitting this foundation or other children who are suffering? I don't get it, it's all becoming a bit "LOOK AT ME IM ASHLEY CAIN" 😬😬
I guess people are sharing the hashtag and raising awareness for the foundation and getting the name out there so they can raise more funds. The meet and greets and women pushing past Saf to get to Ashley is a bit much though.

It’s really nice his entire family are so supportive but do none of them have jobs/families?

Nobody ‘needs’ lashes though, do they? Such things are not exactly essential to survival.
Especially when promoting a cancer foundation where people literally lose hair through the treatment! So short sighted. I’m not saying she needs to go bald but to be making such a big deal about supporters seeing her with crap lashes when the cause is for cancer (at 11pm at night when it’s pitch black anyway)

I think it’s meant to be a testament to Azaylia and what she fought through whilst she was alive doing something that physically tough. I’d say people are also more likely to donate for a very tough challenge with a good cause behind it.
I think some people think because the go fund me raised 1.6 million that the foundation doesn’t need to raise any more funds to help sick children. Baby A’s treatment alone was going to cost over 500k that’s without any expenses of travelling and accommodation/living expenses abroad so I imagine whilst 1.6 mil would be a massive help to some people it wouldn’t last that long helping children in the same position as she was in. Obviously if they want this foundation to be a ongoing charity to help people they’ve got to be constantly raising awareness and funds to do so.

To me her mum needs to do whatever she can to put whatever has happened in the past (for now at least) and just be there for Saf. Apologise, forget what has been said and done and just be there. Even if it’s just to sit in silence with her or to hug her, whatever. She needs her Mum. Looking back on her Instagram they were clearly very close. I know we don’t know what’s going on behind closed doors, her mum might be trying to reach out and Saf is shutting her out but still. I can’t bare to see her just shuffling around on her own 😢

I feel sad that she has to be home alone with no support when her brother isn’t there but it could help her in the long run. She’s learning to be strong and pick herself up, probably allowing herself to cry and grieve while he isn’t there to tell her to put a brave face on. Ashley is just running away from it all and will crash.

Regarding her mum.. We have no idea what she’s really like. Not everyone has a good mum worth having a relationship with.

1.6M has not all been spent on bike rides, buckets, McDonald’s and hotel rooms. I absolutely agree, that there needs to be more transparency around how the money is being spent. And 20K to Birmingham children’s hospital was a joke.

I feel that her family or Ashley’s family need to step in take her away let her grieve show her all the love she deserves 💔 I’m praying she makes it back up with her mom, she was a big part in her life before they fell out

I am so glad others have seen what I’ve seen. I’d never heard of either of them before A got really poorly so had no preconceptions. I watched a few stories and instantly disliked Ashley, he came across as arrogant, self centred and over the top. There was hardly any interaction with Saf the whole time they were posting about A, they didn’t seem to support each other emotionally so I wondered if they were actually still a couple. Everyone was going mad for the stories, waiting for updates like a pack of vultures almost. I had to unfollow because I could cope with seeing what felt like a baby being paraded on Instagram in her final days, at this point it felt more than raising awareness….
After A died I never saw that bond of grief between the two of them, not even during the funeral.
It’s evident that all is not well between them which is sad, I agree Saf looks absolutely lost, irreparably damaged and in desperate need of being able to bond and share this time and experience with Ashley instead of nights alone in hotel rooms.
Such a sad sad situation, I hope someone pulls her back up before it’s too late.

If they want donations they need to feature saf more. Her genuine heartfelt stories and ways of coping will generate far more income than the travelling ash circus. They're missing a trick leaving saf on the sidelines. I'm glad she's doing some charity work today, that's the kind of content and pr the charity needs if they want it to be sustainable and run long term.

They have said in their latest interview/podcasts that when Azaylia was sick in hospital, due to COVID they rarely spent any time together. It was literally one in and one out. To me I feel like they have learnt to deal with this all on their own, individually. Whether people like him or not he spent a lot of time with his baby, time that other fathers probably don’t get because they are out to work etc. To then lose that must be heartbreaking.
I can see that they don’t seem to show affection, but we are given tiny snippets of their day - I honestly hope when it’s just the two of them that they are ok. I do feel they need time away, just the two of them. To remember Azaylia and get back some sort of relationship for the two of them.

He's gonna end up very very poorly if this carries on. Being strong is just waking up, facing the day. Not 3000 mile bloody bike rides.
It's like he's frightened of people seeing him break, I hope Menkind or some charity from the hospital that specifically helps dads gets in contact with him soon. They've had 0 time to grieve and delayed grief is even worse

I can’t deal with the fact he’s had a long hug with that blonde girl but didn’t even look at saf, poor girl.

If he stopped all the bloody photos and meet and greets then maybe he wouldn’t be so tired and he would give his body time to relax and recover for the next day but they won’t as his thriving on it.

People keep asking why they need more money.. They have this huge platform and the money they have already collected won’t go far so they may aswell keep going and raise as much as they can while the momentum is behind them.

Watching Saf’s live I’m convinced that they’ve split up. It was heartbreaking when she said the others didn’t want her on the bike ride-for HER daughters foundation. There is absolutely no reason why Saf cannot join in for at least the last few miles. She seems so lost.

I joined the foundation page thinking some good would come from it and so far it’s all about ash and his family . Saf was azaylia s mother fir gods sake why in earth is she being treated this way . None of this is about childhood cancer it’s about ash and his ego he loves the attention he’s lapping uo so much that he does not give two shits that his partner and mother ti his child is sat at home depressed .
