My personal message:

I am taking part in the London 10K for Tamba.

***************************************************************************

Well  I DID IT ........havn't done anything like this before and so pleased i did it !!!!!!

We didnt start dead on 9.35am that was the Elite athletes so i am a bit unsure on my time , was told  we went through the start at around 10.15am which means i did it in aaround an hour and a half if we went through before it was more  but  still v pleased as i am not a runner and didnt manage to do much training like i wanted to do ............there were 25. 000 runners   i am so proud that i was part of it  and raisded money for  " Tamba "

I was thinking of you all when i was doing it and it spurred me on  i am not a runner  so by time i saw the finish i was pleased to see it  but i am so proud to have done it and thank you all so much for your support  and your help in rqaising money for Tamba

Thank you so  so much to everyone that has or is sponsering me it means so much xxx

*******************************************************************************************

It is a FANTASTIC  organisation supports familes with twins, triplets, quads and more.

Without Tamba i dont know how i would have got through last year  the bubs were in SCBU for 3 weeks   i came online  Tambas  fab message board which is wonderful for advice and support  to see loads oif messages of support  and sending us love and strength which was  so Fab ,,,,,,,,,Jack was quite poorly in SCBUI then we came home and i spent day and night trying to get him to feed  a very exhasuting tearful few weeks before Jack ended up back in hospital  which then started months of tests  obviusoly with twins  that was difficult as in and out of hospital with Jack and Olivia at home too.

I feel blessed to have Twins , when you have one baby who is sick  and one that obviuosly still needs your attention and nurturing its tough ................after month s of investigations last year Jack  was Diagnosed with Di George Syndrome " the support , and freindship which i have found through Tamba has been invaluable and i dont know how i would have got through it without it  those 1st 6 months were very difficult and Tamba was a life line to me !!!.

i dont think i will be able to run much of  the way as my training started out well Jan/Feb but  then with Jacks appointments etc has been difficult  but i will power walk and run some if i can but deternmmined to do this for Tamba its the least i can do

Please sponser me so Tamba can help other families they do a fantastic job campaigning for us and fighting our corner and supporting us. in so many ways
 
It is a unique wonderful organisation.

Many thanks
