Dear all

 

Thanks for visiting my just giving page.

Most of you will know the nightmare that myself and my wife Laura, particularly Laura has been going through over the last few months or so with regards to what can only be described as a freak act of God.

We have however been blessed with the miracle that is Theo who is the one thing that is keeping us going...He has already been through so much in his short life but we are please to say that after 3 months in the neo natal unit at the Royal London hospital, he is at home and doing very well. His first few years of life however will be very challenging and there are still a lot of unknowns. We are as always, praying and hoping for the best possible outcome.

This year I will be raising money for Bliss and then setting myself a new challenge for next year to raise money for Laura's charity. On the 19th Sept 2010, I plan to strap myself to a complete stranger, placing my life entirely in his hands and jumping out of a perfectly good plane. We hope to have a smooth landing assuming my excessive weight does not kill us both! In addition, I will be joined by around 10 of my close family and friends doing the same thing!
