Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page :)

This may be the maddest thing I have done....but I am serioulsy excited about this! 26 Miles on Roller skates......

(http://www.skatemania.co.uk/skatemania7_002.htm).

My feet are going to hate me by the end of the day. However, I am doing this for a good cause....

On 23rd Feb 2005 my beautiful baby niece (Leah) was born premature,  What should have been one of the bestest days for my brother and sister in law it turned out to be pretty heart wrenching for not only them but family and friends too.

Leah had a weak heart that could not beat on its own and she was immediately put in an incubator. Everyone tried to keep as positive as they could for Leah. I got a call from my brother the following day to say things did not look good and to get to the hospital as soon as I could.

On the 24th February 2005, Leah was 1 day old... her heart could not cope being off life support and the angels took her to live with them.

The people at Tiny Lives made Leahs short time with us as comfortable as possible and provided support to the family. I would like to raise as much money as possible to help other premature babies and their familes.

So please dig deep every penny counts!!!! x
