Story

Hello and thank you for taking the time to visit my fundraising page.

I will be running my first ever marathon on the 22nd April 2007 which is going to be my biggest challenge yet. In the next 4 months i'll be pounding the pavements 5 days a week in all weather's for this wonderful charity which is close to my heart. My son Curtis, who is 11 years old, has had Diabetes since he was 3, he does not get a day off, type 1 Diabetes is 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for life, and without daily insulin injections he would die as would 330,000 other children without them. We depend on the generosity of you guys to help find a cure for this terrible disease which is on the increase and could strike any child at any time.  I have a marathon task ahead of me so please would you be so kind as to help me reach my target of £1,500.

Thank you so much!

Michelle
