<p class="iphone-update">Updated on Feb 6th 2012 at 9:13 AM from the JustGiving API</p> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Some of you will remember my wife, Becci, suffering a major stroke in November 2009, the day after her 39th birthday. Amazingly, her recovery was fast and almost 100%. This was thanks in no small measure to the stroke ward at Basingstoke Hospital.</p> <p>Thanks to ongoing research, she was given a 'thrombolysis' injection that dispersed the errant blood clot in her brain within a few hours of the stroke.</p> <p>I decided to (attempt to !) trek to Everest as it is my 40th later this year, and I hope to raise money for The Stroke Association at the same time. I will be ably accompanied by Steve Carter.</p> <p>Those of you that know me well, can't fail to be impressed that I have worked out how use a computer !
