Story

The triathlon involves swimming 300m, cycling 20k and running 5k.  It’s a bit daunting for me.   

I decided to do this for a cause very close to my heart – the Neonatal Unit at West Suffolk Hospital.  My son Frank had a very difficult start in life.  At two days old he was diagnosed with a congenital diaphragmatic hernia and had to be rushed to Addenbrookes Hospital at two days old.  He had lifesaving surgery at 4 days old.  A week later he returned to West Suffolk Hospital for the remainder of his treatment and recovery.  Both myself and my husband spent a lot of time on the unit whilst Frank was recovering from his surgery and we saw how fantastic the unit is and how dedicated the staff are.   Frank is now a very happy, healthy three year old boy.   I wanted to give something back to say 'thank you'.
