Hello ! My name is Kate Martinez Hewat. I was born in () in . I was adopted by both my parents Theresa and Jonathan Hewat at 20 months. They also adopted my older sister Laura at 3 months, and brought us back to live in the . 

I have created a JustGiving Charity page because I have decided to do a Tandem Skydive and want to raise enough money to help find a cure for a VERY RARE disease called: Lymphangioleiomyomatosis also known as LAM. My Mum tragically lost her fight for life against the disease last December. It affects around one woman in a million. Just over 60 in the are known to have it. It occurs world-wide and is equally rare in other countries. Your support would mean SO MUCH, and jumping out of a plane at 10,000ft is going to be really scary for me, so please give what you can. LAM affects the lungs where, it causes an overgrowth of a certain type of cell (smooth muscle cell). To find out more, go to LAMACTION.ORG.UK.
