Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.My son usman was a healthy 14 year old doing all the things a 14 year would do and a big cricket fan and player.He was diagnosed in november 2007 with Dilated Cardiomypathy at childrens hospital birmingham and was on the heart transplant list at greart ormond hospital.While he was alive I told him I would run the london Marathon,he lughed and said no way dad you are not fit.He passed away in may 2008 before a heart could be found.He used to say it is up to Allah to him we belong and to him we shall return.I was very proud to have a son like him and I am running in his memory because thats what he would have wanted so CMA can carry on the researching and supporting many people,Particular the young ones like him who are effected by this disease.
I have not run any marathons before but will try my best.I have pledged to rise as much money as I could.If any of you could support or assist me in the fundraising I would be very greatfull.
UPDATE
Thank you all I finshed the Marathon in 7 hours +
