Story

Well the walk is done! It was good fun! And now trying to get moon under water sorted for the head shaving :) stay tune for vids and pics of it happening, and keep digging deep :) ^.^

Hi Everyone, 

My gorgeous, wonderful, loving and caring Girlfriend Deanna as been living with Lupus for over 3 years now.  She is one of the strongest people I know, and takes life by the reigns, and doesn't let her illness rule her. She is an inspiration to me, and I love her so much. 

Every year she takes part in the Lupus Walk of California to help raise money for the Lupus Foundation of America, and I want to start doing my part to support her, and the foundations that exist to help people with Lupus. 

This year I am planning several things. 

First is a BBQ, don't know the whole details of how I'm going to pull this off yet, but I'm going to do my best! 

Second is a Sponsored walk around Willen Lake of Milton Keynes. For every £50 I raise, I am going to attempt a lap of the North Lake. I may not achieve this, but I'll do my darn best! So keep donating to keep me walking! 

I love you guys! I'm at £130 in one day! So that's two laps round so far, and see below for what else I'll do!

£200 - I'll Shave my head! (and again for every £100 raised after!)

£300 - I'll Wax my legs

£400 - I'll Wax my chest >.< 

£500 - I'll go mostly hairless! Back, Arms, Eyebrows!

I will think of other things to help add incentive for you all to donate, but please, anything you can give will be greatly appreciated! 

I am also accepting donations towards the American Foundation, and their Walk for Lupus to help support Deanna with her walk on June 12th. She's raised $30 so far, and as a team we've set our target at $200 ($100 for me to raise and $100 for her) 

If you would like to donate towards this, please go to http://donate.lupus.org/goto/DeannaW

Any donations I receive off-line, I will be splitting between both the American and UK foundations. 

If anyone has any ideas of what to do, or would like to help me in my hefty task, please let me know, you can contact me directly at rezal@hotmail.co.uk
