Story
Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page raising money for the MND Association, by sponsoring me your money will help people affected by Motor Neurone Disease, which is a horrible debilitating disease.
Prior to being diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease 3 years ago, my Dad was an outgoing, friendly and social person that loved being around people and helping anybody at anytime, but now he is house bound and unable to get out due to the size of his wheelchair and problems of getting out of the house. MND has meant that my Dad is sat at home all day every day, unable to do anything for himself, the simple things that we take for granted like going to the bathroom or making a cup of tea, he is unable to do as the muscles have worn away in his arms and legs. He also now has to wear a Nippy 24/7 as he is unable to breathe on his own without support.
Update on 10th July 2017;
I have now completed the following races; March - Stafford Half marathon, April - Spring Treble races, May - Market Drayton 10K, Clayton 10K, Stone 5, June - Westbridge 5, Shrewsbury Half Maraton & July - Southport Half Marathon in total 76 miles in 3 1/2 months.
Unfortunately My Dad lost his battle with Motor Neurone Disease on 14th June 2017. In honour of my Dad, my aim now is to continue running until the MND Association have found a cure for this horrible disease.
Thank you to everyone that has sponsored me so far, your support has been amazing xxx
