My story
My daughter Daisy has a rare, life-limiting, genetic condition called Costello Syndrome, if this wasn't enough when she was three she went into intestinal failure and has subsequently developed neuropathic bladder. She receives all her nutrition and most of her medications directly into her bloodstream via a central venous catheter (hickman line) and is hooked up to an IV drip for over 17 hours a day. She has endured countless operations and procedures and has spent more than half her life in hospital. Life is a challenge for Daisy but she faces it head on, with the biggest smile, she is determined to life life to the full - she is an inspiration to everyone who meets her! As a family we were taken on a white knuckle ride from the moment Daisy was born, but when she was 6 months old we were thrown a lifeline in the form of our wonderful hospice, Shooting Star Chase. They support families of children who are not expected to life to adulthood, they have been with us every step of our journey with Daisy.
The care and support they provide us costs the taxpayer or our health authority nothing and yet they receive no guaranteed government funding, all their funding comes from voluntary sources. The service they provide is essential for families like ours.
Last year I set myself the challenge to run 7 races to mark 7 years of care by Shooting Star-Chase for our family - I completed it in November and raised over £1,000. I enjoyed running so much I decided to enter the London Marathon this year and take my challenge to a new level! I want to raise an additional £500 ontop of my original target. You can follow my progress on my online race diary at
And you can also follow my blog about life with Daisy at
Please help me support the place that gives our family so much support!

Job Done!!! Here's my blog post all about my London Marathon 2013 experience http://www.wasthisintheplan.com/2013/05/a-tale-of-3-marathons-postscript.html
Off to pick up my runner number tomorrow! I will also be collecting a black ribbon to wear to honour those killed and injured during the Boston Marathon.
Cranleigh 21 completed last week - really pleased with how my training is going. Sports massage has sorted out my little niggles and I'm really looking forward to 21 April now!
Training is going well - in the past couple of weeks I have completed the Spitfire 20 mile race and Fleet Half Marathon - I'm clocking up lots of miles in training, long runs have taken over my Sunday mornings! Looking forward to the Marathon now - just over a month to go!!
Well I completed my 2012 challenge and exceeded my target - 7 races to mark 7 years in the bag and I have been bitten by the running bug so much so that I have agreed to run the Virgin London marathon this year - I have extended my page so please sponsor me and share the page
