This is my first marathon... hopefully the first of many! Together with Lucy Amans I am embarking on the Edinburgh Marathon - 23rd May 2010. If you fancy a weekend away in bonnie scotland.... all support is welcome!

 

I am running for Lifeblood - The Thrombosis Charity - as I suffer from  Antiphospholipid Syndrome or Hughes' syndrome for more info please go to:

http://www.thrombosis-charity.org.uk/old/aboutthrom_thrombophilia_acquired_aps.htm

This materialised in me with a clot in my leg and lung (DVT and Pulmonanry Embolism) shortly followed by a 2nd clot in my lung. I was a young "relatively"  fit young girl. I am now on medication for the rest of my life to control the condition.

This charity mission statement:

The Thrombosis Charity wishes to increase awareness of thrombosis among the public and health professionals and to raise research funds to improve patient care through improved prevention and treatment of venous thromboembolic disease.

So please..... sponsor me to FINISH this marathon. All your support for this is welcome!

Many Thanks

Very nervous but excited.....

Charlotte :)
