Story

Soooo I ve signed up to climb Ben Nevis 🤦‍♀️currently scheduled 9 th July pandemic depending ...  now few glasses of wine in me I did not realise this was the highest mountain in the uk but I am a woman of my word...✅

My mother has been suffering from Alzheimer’s almost 20 years diagnosed at 55 , a very young diagnose which hits 10 times as hard ... my mother was a fantastic woman with an outstanding character , always dressed to the 9's , loved to the craic , laughed endlessly , top end one liner spakes , treated everyday as a new start and couldn't of drowned me in anymore love than she did ... I was the apple of her eye regardless of the amount of sleepless nights I left her to encounter ...  but with her love and guidance she left me fun loving generally grounded independent human being .... this is a terrible disease you wouldn't wish on your worst enemy it's too late for my mum to reverse but it's not too late to for your loved ones or even yourself ...  so please with whatever little or as much as you can sponsor would be greatly appreciated ...... this is quite a challenge on average 9 hour climb up and down 🤦‍♀️so in the fine words of my mother .... "THERES NO SUCH WORD AS CANT RHONDA, CANT MEANS WONT " let's crack this disease ... 💙♥️ 

A big shout to my step father Edwin who cares for day in and day out .... he still sends her 12 red roses every Valentine’s Day without fail, if that ain’t true love I don’t know what is ♥️🙌
