Story
An old friend of ours is terminally ill with Chrones and also Heart Disease and has been fighting for a couple of years. He was given 8 weeks to live about 8 weeks ago but is still going. He suffers extreme pain daily and his quality of life is very poor, it's heartbreaking to see him go through all this. My sister and I are trying so hard to raise money for him to help towards treatment which could hopefully prolong his life and to keep him and his adoring sister together for longer. His sister, Helen, was diagnosed with a brain tumour a few years ago but, unfortunately, surgery to remove this was unsuccesful and left her brain damaged and completely blind. They have both been through so much and still manage to keep their spirits high. They are thankful that they live together and able to keep each other company but when Neil passes Helen will be left on her own and that upsets Neil more than anything.
We have done some fundraising before but thought we would take matters into our own hands and get hot and sweaty on the 5K Inflatable Santa Run in Brighton on Saturday 25th November 2017.
Please, please dig deep and give as much as you can to help two incredible people. Thank you xx

7 years agoSo, the 25th has been and gone and we completed the run, of course we did. Such a great day for a great cause and had so many laughs long the way. It was cold but a lovely bright day in Brighton and there was such an incredible atmosphere, everyone helping and encouraging each other. There is still time to help with sponsorship. Thank you to everyone who has supported us, you’ll never realise how appreciated you are xx

7 years agoWe have had a great response to our plea so far. Neil, however, is getting so much worse with a diagnosis of Emphysema and he was also given a blood transfusion on Thursday 2nd November. He is a fighter and is still going despite being given only 8 weeks to live. Please please dig as deep as you can so he can enjoy the days he has left and help him create some incredible memories for his courageous sister. Thank you xx

We have known Neil for about a decade and care about him and his sister and awful lot as they really haven't had the best time over the last few years. They are amazing, incredible and hugely inspiring and we really hope that something good comes their way soon xx
