Story

14 years ago our beautiful daughter was born with congenital melanocytic naevi. Since then we have been supported by our friends in Caring Matters Now, have shared our experiences with others, been part of the groundbreaking research- and discovery! - of the gene which causes it and supported the continued work towards treatments . 

But the work is not finished!

 I want to see treatments for those with the life threatening effects of this condition and, closer to home, I want Eva to have the chance to choose if she would like a treatment to fade her birthmarks. To this end, I will jump out of a plane, hurl myself towards earth at great speed and land with a thump - or who knows, I may enjoy it!!!!! I haven't done such a big sponsored event for CMN before and ask you to please dig deep and support my family in this truly life changing endeavour. I'm not expecting to repeat this - ever!!
