From today (9th Sept) in addition to my “unforgotten miles” for 30 days I am going to walk 2 miles for a child living with a serious illness. Everyday is a challenge for them so they must take it one step at a time.
In our own lives, sometimes we don’t realise how many daily steps we’re taking. Whether we’re walking to the shops, doing the school run, taking the dog out or going to work; all those steps add up.
However many, it’s time to make those miles count. That’s what I hope to do with your support x Big or small it all adds up and is appreciated ❤️💙
Jack, six, was diagnosed with cerebral palsy after he had a severe seizure when he was just seven hours old. He spent his time in and out of hospital recovering from episodes that could last up to four hours. Medication makes him sleepy and has other side effects b he never stops smiling and has a go at anything including break-dancing while listening to music!Jack's wish was to go to CBeebies Land as he loves Postman Pat - it was due to take place in April but had to be cancelled because of the coronavirus. Every time Jack goes into hospital, he must isolate until his test results for coronavirus have come back negative.Since lockdown, Jack hasn't been able to access some of the mobility kit that is stored at school, so now his wish is to have a hot tub to help him both work out so he can ease his mobility, but also relax and have fun.Jack uses his walking frame with ease and will walk until he is literally exhausted. He wants to be involved in everything!
