Hi there,
I am running London marathon 2012 for Leukaemia Society UK.
When I was 10, a family friend’s daughter - Natalie died of leukaemia aged 13. Natalie had hopes and aspirations akin to most teenagers her age, which she never managed to achieve. A few years before her death, her baby brother tragically died of sudden infant death syndrome. Her parents were devastated when Natalie was diagnosed with Acute myeloid leukaemia and 12 months later, she lost her fight for life.
I’ve been running for just over 18 months now and 16 years on, I’m very really grateful to have the opportunity to do something to help teenagers with this terrible disease. Raising funds for Leukaemia Society UK will enable families like Natalie’s to be able to apply for support with associated costs, access support groups and enable further research to be carried out so that teenagers with this disease today, are to live a longer and healthier life with their loved ones.
Please donate whatever you can, the smallest amount can make a huge difference!
