My story

 

Hello! Thank you so much for sponsoring me to take part in Run to the Beat in September and the BUPA Great South Run in October for the Limbless Association. Of course it is a charity that is close to my heart after my daughter Pollyanna lost her leg in a tragic accident in London in April 2007. I had a major injury to my to left leg also and so this run is a major challenge for me. But with your kind support I will try my best. I really would like to raise money for research into new limbs and also for children and adults in developing countries who don't have the same access for new legs like Pollyanna. I also want to help the Association in its work helping amputees to come to terms with their loss. I know my mother Elizabeth, who died in the crash, would have been pleased to help other people less fortunate than ourselves.

SO THANK YOU SO MUCH TO EVERYONE FOR SPONSORING ME YOU ARE SO KIND AND I CAN NOT WAIT TO TELL YOU HOW I DO - PLEASE WILL YOU ALSO GUESS A TIME AND THE PERSON WHO GUESSES NEAREST TO MY TIME WILL GET A FABULOUS PRESSIE - I PROMISE

Love Sarah xxxxx
