A nice gesture.
The cast of The Big Bang Theory have sent messages to a Dublin boy who has terminal cancer.
Four-year-old Oscar Keogh was diagnosed with a rare brain tumour called Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma in January 2018 that can’t be treated or operated on.
Only 10% of children with this cancer survive to two years.

Oscar is a massive fan of The Big Bang Theory and his mother Yavanna reached out to Melissa Rauch, who plays Bernadette in the series, to tell her about her son’s love for the show and ask her for an autograph.
Rauch went well above just her autograph and sent three videos to Yavanna for Oscar, including one of all the cast declaring their love for Oscar.
Yavanna shared one of the videos online and expressed her gratitude for the kind gesture.

She said: “Oscar has some new friends!! We’re all crying with happiness. Thank you SO much to the incredible Melissa Rauch who saw our message last week explaining that Oscar was obsessed with Big Bang Theory and absolutely in love with her character Bernadette.
“We asked for an autograph, she kindly offered to do a video and even took the time to read our blog post. She’s such an incredible person and sent us THREE videos including this one with all the cast (we’re keeping the other two just for us)!
“They’re all incredible and Oscar is OVER THE MOON!!! Magic can be real and this is proof!!”
A GoFundMe page has also been set up for Oscar and his battle with DIPG which you can find right here.
