Story

<p>Myself and Russ are doing two 26 miles Rowathans</p> <p>The first is&nbsp;on 30th July&nbsp;from 10am in&nbsp;Tesco's at their Wath Store, Rotherham.</p> <p>The second is on 6th August&nbsp; from 10am at Ponds Forge Leisure Centre, Sheffield.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Please read on to discover why we are doing this challenge</p> <p>My first daughter, Rebbecca&nbsp;was born on this date she lived for fifteen beautiful&nbsp;but scarey&nbsp;weeks being a new single mum, then fate lent a hand and she passed&nbsp;because of&nbsp;cot death.</p> <p>My third child however is a little different, unfortunately I didn't have the pleasure or oppotunity to meet this little individual&nbsp;I named Hazel, she was still born.</p> <p>These two little people who enriched my life greatly I would like to thank for giving me the chance now to make a difference for other people.</p> <p>So all monies which are raised from the event will be split evenly between three specific causes:</p> <p>1: Special Care Baby unit at Rotherham Hospital</p> <p>2: Councelling for berieved parents and families.</p> <p>3: Still Birth Research-National</p> <p>The research is&nbsp;a cause&nbsp;I decided upon very recently after hearing a news clip on TV, which pronounced that Britain has the highest statistic in Europe. I'm flabagasted that this number is still&nbsp;so high after all these years.</p> <p>Research is an essencial part of medicine to fetch these numbers down donations are needed so we can achieve getting this number lower than anywhere else in the world.</p> <p>So I'm asking, no on this occasion only, I am&nbsp;begging for you all to donate as much as you can possible afford then please pass on my web&nbsp;page address to your friends. So if anyone finds themselves in the position I was in has any help they require. So little steps can be made at first. So great strides can be made forever.</p> <p>As a token&nbsp;of my appreciation&nbsp;for spending your precious time reading my request, I would just like to introduce to you the cheaky chick in the corner, this&nbsp;was my daughter Rebbecca who always made me smile and when I look at this picture now, she still does.</p> <p>Kindest Regards.lol.x</p>
