Last year my cousins eldest child was in and out of hospital in pain and struggling to walk unaided at times. They were difficult times and the uncertainty was not nice for all the family, eventually a diagnosis was found and Stella was suffering from arthritis. This debilitating condition is often thought to impact elder people but children can suffer too. Stella has been amazing and has smiled throughout and thrown herself into everything a child would normally do - yes she gets tired and yes it hurts but that does not stop the smile!! She is a credit to all of us and during all the tests it was found that she was also suffering from Crohn’s disease!! This is something I know about as I have suffered myself with this for over 20 years.
So I am challenging myself this September to raise money for CCAA (Children’s Chronic Arthritis Assoc) - they help support families and raise awareness for the condition!!!
I am going to attempt to run 10km(6.2miles) everyday in September!
Any sponsorship you can make would be massively appreciated!!
