Many of you will have known Rachel my wife and my life for over 33 years and some of you will not have known her but Rachel and myself and family want to make awareness of the Bipolar illness. She is a mother of 3 and is sadly missed by all. My wife suffered for many years with the Bipolar condition, she had many episodes and we as a family fought it and beat it, but her last episode she has lost that fight and passed away last Saturday 12th December. Bipolar effects the mind so that the person does things that the person would not normally do, this was prove with are Rachel but the Bipolar illness took control of her. She was a very caring person and always wanted to help others and always worried about others and never had a bad word about anyone. What I, as a husband and her children are suffering now, would want to try and help prevent other families from the same suffering. If we do this for one family we have succeeded. We as a family who want to carry on her caring attitude and will do more events to continue this. People must be aware that Bipolar might not be obvious, like you can see someone with broken leg/arm etc. But someone with mind problems may not be obvious. Please donate what ever you can to help this very important charity. With you doing so will help others who are suffering and will help my family because it will give us calmness that Rachel is still providing help and that she is not suffer with the condition anymore.

Please give what ever you can and share with your friends especially if you know someone with mental illness. My thanks in advance.
