Story

<p>Hi! I'm Carla and I'm off to the Transplant Games in August to compete in the archery event. If that's not enough, I'll also be dressed as a medieval archer to honour my re-enactment group Wirhalh Skip Felag, part of Regia Anglorum, who supported me through my illness, visiting me in hospital, teasing me, bringing me books to read and generally being marvellous!</p> <p>I had my second kidney transplant one year ago after suffering from kidney failure as a teenager. My wonderful husband Peter, (a real hero!) donated in a paired donation, and I haven't looked back!</p> <p>Please sponsor me a little to support TSUK, a great charity that supports transplant patients and raises awareness of the importance of organ donation - even better - donate a little and then sign the Organ Donor register for a real 'feel good' high!</p> <p>Update: 30/6/11&nbsp;</p> <p>I will also be running in the 3 km donor run at the games this year. I shall &nbsp;be doing this event in full medieval kit as well (except I'll be wearing trainers!)&nbsp;</p> <p>I have also decided to name the arrows I'll be using in the event after my top donors. I'll tell you the top scoring arrow after the games!</p> <p>It's National Transplant Week next week! Read more of my story here!&nbsp;<a href="http://www.transplantweek.co.uk/carla-maclean.html">http://www.transplantweek.co.uk/carla-maclean.html</a>&nbsp;Peter's story will be up next week.</p>
