Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Please help me to help Amelia:</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Amelia&rsquo;s Saunder&rsquo;s is a wonderful little three year old.&nbsp; In February she was diagnosed with an brain tumour and the family were informed that she could not be treated in the UK and that her life would be short.&nbsp; However, there is a pioneering treatment by the Burzynski Clinic in Huston Texas that has provided hope Amelia.&nbsp; The family are trying to raise &pound;200,000 for the course treatment.&nbsp; At this time Amelia will be able to start her treatment.</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Amelia used to go to the same nursery as my daughter.&nbsp; She would come over and see me when I picked Thea up and Tracey also got to know her family during the morning drop off.&nbsp; She&rsquo;s an extremely sweet little three year old girl.&nbsp; The thought of her suffering like this is unbearable to me.</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Later this year I shall complete the Basingstoke half marathon in an effort to help raise more funds for Amelia.&nbsp; I&rsquo;ve never attempted this distance before and would not be fit enough to attempt it at the moment.&nbsp; Unfortunately, Amelia may not live long enough for me to attempt this run if the treatment is not provided.&nbsp; Therefore, I&rsquo;ll also commit to some additional runs, including the Shinfield 10K in May and the Tadley 10K in July.&nbsp; This will help me prepare for the longer distance,&nbsp;show my intent, and hopefully&nbsp;encourage earlier donations.&nbsp; I&rsquo;d be very grateful if donations were made in advance of the half marathon.</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">&nbsp;</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Please, please help me to help Amelia.</span></span></p> <p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
