Hi

My name is Ian and I am running the great north for teesside hospice which is a fantastic charity based in middlesbrough on teesside and It would fantastic if you could help me to support this well deserving charity .

The reason I am putting myself through this hell ( lol ) is really for my mum who died in the hospice 10 years ago this november from Cancer. She spent the last few weeks of her life in the hospice and this allowed her to pass away with peace and dignity.

She was a fantastic warm, caring and the most un selfish person I have ever met. She was a great mum and always there when I or anyone else needed her. Even to the end she would put everyone elses feeling first and I hope that as one of her sons I can in some way do her proud as I know she would be in the knowledge that in June of this year my wife gave birth to what would of been her first grandaughter.

She would be 57.

We all miss you still, Love you always Mum.

Ian
