Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In April 2013 Abigail Sheila arrived to 'complete our family'. 4 months later our world was catagorically ripped apart when after a series of health problems we were told she had Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) type 1,that there was sadly no cure and it was most likely that she would not see her 1st birthday. True to the statistics or beautiful girl passed away on December 6th 2 days before turning 8 months old.

In all her time with us my baby never complained! She smiled everyday and she never gave up until she really could not fight any more. 

Given I have multiple pelvis problems due to having 3 huge babies and 3 pregnancies in 2 years physical endurance challenges are out for me at the moment so i have decided to give up coffee for a month! 🙈🙈 ! Coffee is my crutch! My gulity pleasure,my pickme up. My youngest does not sleep much so this is gonna be pretty tough! Not anywhere near as tough as all my brave girl faced though.
