<p><span style="color: #0000ff;">I have decided to run the London Marathon in memory of my little girl Niamh who lost her fight for life against complex epilepsy and mitochondrial disease in February 2009.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #3366ff;">After Niamh's death we met an amazing couple Liz &amp; Dave who lived just round the corner from us in Warlingham, and they had lost their dauhter Lily to a similar condition to Niamh 2 years before. They had already set up a charity in Lily's memory which has grown incredibly in the last couple of years.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #0000ff;">The charity funds a gene testing program which will help thousands of other families who's children suffer from these rare and currently incurable conditions.They also support families of affected children.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #3366ff;">This charity is very close to our hearts and we would be forever grateful if you could please help us raise money to help other children like Niamh &amp; Lily. Anything you can give will be a huge help as &pound;2,000 is a lot to raise in a recession!</span></p> <p><span style="color: #0000ff;">Niamh story can be found at <a href="http://www.niamhsjourney.com">www.niamhsjourney.com</a></span></p>
