Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our just giving page.

Type 1 diabetes showed its ugly face in our beautiful bubble just over 2 years ago when our 4 year old son Romeo got unexpectedly diagnosed.

That day and every day after have been a rollercoaster of emotions and hard work. With 4/8 injections a day, fingerpricks, daily carb counting, constant site changes, hospital appointments, blood tests and so much more our romeo does all this and more with such strength, resilience and bravery.

Me & daddy are in awe of you buddy and couldn’t be prouder. So to celebrate you, raise awareness and some money to help get one step closer to a cure for this horrific disease we are running the Southampton race in April.

So please dig deep and give what you can to help us raise awareness and money for an amazing team who are working hard to improve medicine and technology to one day allow us to say OUR SON HAD DIABETES !!!!!!!!!!

Diabetes is relentless but so are we !!
