My personal message:

Hi there

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page!

Stephen gave me a present of a Skydive (I think there was an ulterior motive .....!) and I'm using the occasion to raise funds for Huntingtons Disease.    Our brother in law Stewart is unfortunately a victim of the disease and I've been horrified at the stories he tells of having to lobby MPs in order to maintain basic nursing care.   HD is a devasting illness so I hope you will donate generously.   I realise that it is the Scottish branch of the Huntingtons Association however this is solely because Stewart lives in Kilmarnock.

There's lots of worthy charities that I could have chosen, Cancer Research in particular given the suffering that we've evidenced through Stephen's mum, our very good friend Bobby and Colin's Dad.   I feel however that they have a lot more visibility (thank goodness!) than Huntingtons so I hope everyone will understand .....

Hope you can help.

Love and best wishes anyway

Susan
