Story

<p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">On Sunday 13</span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"> May 2012 I am doing the Wilmslow Triathlon. In the process of the swim/cycle and run I am raising money for the SMA trust.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">This will provide resources to enable vital research into the presently incurable childhood disease spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).&nbsp;This condition has been brought to our attention after our family friend David Dee was diagnosed with it. SMA is a devastating condition that affects 1 in 6,000 children.&nbsp;Children are unable to sit up, crawl or walk.&nbsp;At present there is no cure.&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; color: #1c1c1c; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">However, the scientists are making significant advancements. They know the specific gene affected and are running clinical trials. <span style="border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0cm; padding: 0cm;">The SMA Trust is dedicated to finding a cure for SMA. <strong>So please dig deep and donate now to help these children!</strong></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;">Best Wishes, Henri</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Arial&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; color: #1c1c1c; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"><span style="border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0cm; padding: 0cm;"><br></span></span></p> </p>
