My story

My Darling Husband sean Robert Upton was killed on the 27th July in an explosion while on foot patrol in Helmond. He was with 5th regiment, Royal Artillery and his job in Afghanistan was mentoring the police in Sangin.

Sean and i grew together we were childhood sweethearts and soulmates, he was everything to me and our two children Ewan 10 and Hollie 7

On the 29th of this Month it would have been sean's birthday, with help from Sean's Regiment we are taking part in a bike ride of the 'Hadrains wall challenge' over two days starting on the 28th and finishing on the 29th of November 2009.

The money raised will help go towards 'The Forces Childrens Trust 'which is a great charity thats helps support children who have lost a father or mother in conflict and who have been seriously injured.
