As some of you might know my little boy has a rare heart disease called Shones Complex, Dan is almost 2 years old now and holding his own :) As a result of Dan’s condition, we spent quite a lot of time within the Crumlin Hospital walls. To try and raise funds for Our Lady’s Hospital Crumlin I am competing in Adare to Survive in September (for anyone not familiar with this, it is a military style obstacle course for 7.5km, which someone thought would be a great idea to get people to wade through mud up to their eyeballs!). 

An extract from the August CMRF Newsletter..."You'll be happy to hear Daniel's strength triumphed. He's happy and thriving at home now, which his mum believes is down to the unwavering care Daniel received in Crumlin. Daniel is getting stronger by the way and thankfully he will not need any further surgeries - Thanks to research you are helping to fund, Daniel will have the chance to grow up and live a happy healthy life"
