Hi there am Jamie Wallace or big Jwall to many. I am doing the UWCB event in Aberdeen on the 11th of November. I'm looking to raise as much money as possible for the anchor unit which means alot to me and my family. The reason is back in April 2021 my mother was diagnosed with bone and bone marrow cancer. I real shock at the time and 2 years on from her diagnosis it has not improved. It's now active in her spine cord which has made her disabled. New treatment had recently started but unfortunately my mum isn't well enough to receive it and was doing more harm than good so all treatment has now stopped. I want to do my bit now to help others than go throw the same pain as what we all did. The Anchor unit in Aberdeen have been amazing with my mum. When she had sort spell in hospital recently they would come round checking up on all the cancer patients and bring them boxes full of useful things and some home comforts while they were in hospital. Now for yous that know me in the nicest possible way. I was never decent to run a marathon for charity 🤣 if there was a pie eating contest I'd be your man... so third option was this... I mean am sure there is many of yous out there that would love to see my head get punched in 🤣🤣🤣 I know times are hard just now but even just a small donation would go a long way. I start my 8 weeks training this Wednesday ( 20/09/23) so wish me luck.... am going to need it 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks
Jamie and the Wallace family and friends ❤️
