Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.I had encephalitis 21years ago , this was devastating for the whole family . Encephalitis is a virus what attacks the brain which causes it  to swell and  crush against the skull in turn causes death or brain damage . It was the hardest times of my life , I had lost everything and reverted back to being a baby . I have learned to walk talk dress eat again with the help of my family and The Encephalitis Society . Which is why this Charity is so important to me. They have helped me over come the most challenging things , as I have been left with brain damage so the most simple tasks are impossible . As I have short term memory loss and many other things . But i am a very stubborn determined woman which helps . This is very true to this challenge as after I ran the London marothon , I said I would NEVER do that again .As I have extreme pain due to nerve damage and arthritis . So hear we are I'm doing even  further this time lol good job I can't remember what happened last time.
