Story

Hey all, as most of you know my oldest son has drug resistant epilepsy, he has battled daily since April 2012.. Cieran can have seizures at any time, he doesn’t get any warnings and has no triggers so we are constantly on high alert.

he is currently undertaking a consultant led drug trial at the Alan Richens Epliepsy research unit in UHW, this drug trial seems to have lessened the seizures from weekly to fortnightly sometimes monthly but not completely stopped them.

I’d like to help this unit along the way with some much needed funds to continue their research into the battle against Epilepsy.. the research team are fantastic with Cieran special thanks to Dee and her team who make every visit personal and easy for Cieran. I’d go as far as to say he loves going to his appointments.

I will be walking 100 miles in may.. between work and other commitments this is no mean feat for me so it’ll be challenging to say the least.. please help me along this month by giving just £1 if you can. Your donations are very much appreciated.

Many thanks in advance

Kathryn xx 😘
