Story

On the 10th October I & the sister in Law will be doing a skydive to raise awareness and money for "Huntingtons Disease".  This disease is close to my heart due to the fact that my brother in law & niece are suffering from this.  Here is a short film to show you what the disease does to the person. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6o2-BgKgOo .    There is NO CURE and it takes the life of the person that it affects. It is a disease that affects ALL THE FAMILY in one way or another.  My sister in law Liz's life changed also when Phil was diagnosed some years ago, she cares for Phil at home and will not allow for him to go into care.  It is a genetic disease with a 50/50 chance of it being passed down and there daughter has also got it.   Since my news of doing this Skydive LIZ has agreed to do it also even though she is frightened to death of doing it, so Please did deep and donate to this worthy cause to help get this disease noticed and find a cure.   Phil and people like him will not get a cure and it has robbed him off all his dignity, humanity and his day to day love of sport & life and he will die due to this disease as will his daughter and other sufferers. Please Lets make it worth Liz's courage to do this jump coz she too is living this life of hell.  YOU CAN DONTATE HERE OR FOR DONATIONS OF £10 AND UNDER JUST TEXT BIGA61

on behalf of the whole family and other HD sufferers
THANKS YOU
