Story

Hey Everyone!! On April 26th 2009 I (along with my daddy) will be running the Flora London Marathon!! Yeah thats right ... you can all stop laughing now!! We'll be running the 26.2miles for Muscular Dystrophy!! For those of you who dont already know Muscular dystrophy (MD) is a genetic disorder that weakens the muscles that help the body move. People with MD have incorrect or missing information in their genes, which prevents them from making the proteins they need for healthy muscles. But here's the tricky bit ... other than the actual running!! I have to raise £1500 for the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign and thats where you guys come in!! www.justgiving.com/katiemcgregor Any donations will be so greatly appreciated!!! Thankyou Katie xxxx Ps - £16 - Gives parents one hour with a specialist physiotherapist so they can learn muscle-stretching techniques that will keep their children walking for longer. £50 - Funds an hour of a Muscular Dystrophy care advisers time - they provide vital care and support for babies children and adults with muscle disease. £250 - Will support the cost of a specially adapted computer which means a child with Muscular Dystrophy can complete their school work on their own. £1700 - will cover the cost of medical care staff for a whole week of the specialist muscle clinics!! Thanks just £65 a mile!! So please do give as every pound goes somewhere worthwhile!!
