Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As most of you know my gorgeous 5 year old nephew Matthew suffers from quadraplegic Cerebral Palsy. Everyone who meets Matthew falls in love with this blonde blue eyed boy with the biggest belly laugh. Nothing stops this thrill seeker. One of his favourite words which Helena taught him is momentum! He loves the rides and characters at Euro Disney and is also partial to a drop of Guinness!  It is amazing what he can achieve and amazing what places like Bobarth can help children achieve helping to get them into the mainstream of life where they belong. Matthew has been having treatment at Bobarth since he was tiny as have many other children from the UK and abroad.

When I was running in last year's Boston marathon ( I swore it would be the last) I found out from Matthew's mum Alison about Team Hoyt - a father and son team who compete in marathons, iron men - you name it. The son suffers from quadraplegic Cerbral Palsy.  See the attached link and see for If that does not inspire you as to what the human spirit can achieve?! http://www.teamhoyt.com/
