Rob McElhenney makes surprise call to young Wrexham fan battling cancer after receiving touching letter

League One

Blackpool

Wrexham

<p>A nine-year-old Wrexham fan named Seirian wrote a touching letter to Hollywood star and Red Dragons co-owner Rob McElhenney. She told the actor about her battle with cancer and how she has been received chemotherapy for leukemia. She also told McElhenney that she has a red belt in Taekwondo, is a fan of American band Imagine Dragons and would love to watch their live show at Cae Res in July.</p><p></p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">We’re looking forward to welcoming a special guest to the STōK Cae Ras for our home fixture against Bristol Rovers 🙌<br><br>🔴⚪️ <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/WxmAFC?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#WxmAFC</a> <a href="https://t.co/2JmVdswsG5">pic.twitter.com/2JmVdswsG5</a></p>— Wrexham AFC Foundation (@Foundation_WAFC) <a href="https://twitter.com/Foundation_WAFC/status/1909265278325715151?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 7, 2025</a></blockquote>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>In response, McElhenney sent a video message where he invited Seirian to the Cae Res to watch Wrexham live in action against Bristol Rovers on April 18. He said: "Hey Seirian! Or should I call you chemo ninja? I just heard some amazing news that you just rang the end of treatment bell. Wow! That deserves the hugest congratulations! That is absolutely incredible and on top of that, I heard that you are a red belt in&nbsp;taekwondo? I think you might actually be tougher than me. You are definitely tougher than Ryan, that's for sure, but ya, I'm gonna say that you are probably tougher than me as well.</p><p>"Also heard that you are a big Wrexham fan and that, unfortunately, you missed out on some of the player visits&nbsp;to the hospital over the years. Well, we would like to fix that. So I have a very, very big favour to ask you. Will you be our special guest at the Cae Ras on April 18 for our match against Bristol Rovers? We would love to have you as our mascot for the day and it would mean so much to us, to everybody at the club and of course, we will make sure your parents are there to cheer you on."</p><p>He added: "We'd love to have you up the town always, and oh! By the way.&nbsp;About Imagine&nbsp;Dragons, I do know that you've got incredibly good taste in music and football teams. I can't make any promises but I'll see, what I can do. Congratulations again, keep fighting hard. Seirian, the chemo ninja, just keep being amazing and I hope to see you soon."</p>

WHAT ROB MCELHENNEY SAID

<p>The Red Dragons are currently six points above third-placed Wycombe and are very close to fulfilling their dream of achieving a third consecutive promotion to the Championship. The bigger goal for the club and its owners, however, remains to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-premier-league-wrexham-plans-appeal-big-company/blt51bff5d5dd93c645" target="_blank">reach the top tier of English football</a>.</p>
