About the charity : LAM Action LAM Action
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis or LAM is a rare lung disease that only occurs in women. It affects just over one woman in a million and LAM Action is aware of 120 women in the United Kingdom who have LAM. The purpose of LAM Action is twofold. Firstly, it is a self-help group to provide support and encouragement for patients with LAM. The second purpose of LAM Action is to raise money for research as it is often difficult to obtain money for research into a rare disease.

Personal message:

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

In November 2007 I had a double lung transplant which saved my life. To celebrate 6 months of life after transplant I intend to "cycle" a marathon 26 miles on an exercise bike and raise money towards research into finding treatment or a cure for the rare lung condition LAM.

Proposed date of "cycle":  Sunday 25th May 2008

Venue:  Clickimin Leisure Centre, Lerwick, Shetland.

          
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: LAM Action will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.


Many thanks for your support.  Marion
