Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As some of you may or may not know, I have had ME/CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) for the past 16 years.

ME is a devastating illness, all the more so because, not only is there no known cure, but there is a lack of understanding and support for those who suffer with it. It can take a great deal of time for people to be diagnosed. In my case it took almost 2 years.

After 16 years, 50 doctors and alternative practitioners, and 2 fantastic accupuncturists, I am happy to say that I have regained almost a full level of health. I got married, had 2 beautiful children, worked in high level jobs and moved to London, England. 

I also started running.

I receive the action for ME newsletter, and in the latest one heard that there were 6 places for those who wanted to run in the Asics London 10k to support the charity. What a fantastic idea, to be able to give money to the charity that supports my own illness - by doing something that by all accounts I shouldn't be able to do.

I hope that you will be willing to contribute something to this deeply personal cause for me. It would be highly appreciated.
