Vinu sadly passed away on September 7th, 2010 after suffering from emphysema. Vinu was a loving husband and father and will be deeply missed by all those whose lives he touched.
Having experienced the devastating affects of this illness through our own family, we would like to raise funds in Vinu's memory to aid research in to finding a cure, to help families cope with caring and to raise awareness of this debilitating disease.
One person in seven in the UK is affected by a lung disease. The BLF is the only UK charity working for all of them, providing support and working for positive change for the future diagnosis and treatment of lung disease. One way in which the BLF provides support is via a nationwide network of Breathe Easy support groups. The BLF campaigns for positive change in lung health by campaigning, raising awareness and funding world-class research. Vinu benefited from the support of the BLF and his wife (Sarla) will continue to benefit from their help in supporting her illness (NSIP).
