Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page
CRY is a foundation set up for Cardiac Risk in the Young. Sadly this seems to be more common in young healthy men.
Rather devastatingly this is
now a foundation close to my family's heart. A few months ago my family lost
our beloved Alex Peck at only 38 years of age. Son, best friend, soul mate and
brother. No warnings, no prior heart problems. Just a heart
breaking phone call in the morning to tell us of our tragedy, that Alex just
didn't wake up one morning. So quickly our lives changed. Sadly this also
happened only 1 week after losing our Nan Bebe from again, unknown
heart conditions. It completely shook our family to the core as we began to ask
questions why. The answers we got will never be enough. But we do little things
like this to try to believe that we can help in some way.
Raising awareness for this hidden condition can hopefully prevent or at least lessen the numbers of other families that may have to go through this awful time.
Any donations given can help research, give support to the family's affected and mainly raise awareness to this tragic cause. That in turn can hopefully aid preventions to these sad and sudden deaths in the young.
