Vinnie has type 1 SMA and was given just two years to live. Well, he is 3 years old and stronger than ever! Thanks to the amazing work by his mum and dad and the love of his big sister.
He's one of my oldest and dearest friends boys and they are like family to me.
He inspires me to be strong and since suffering with depression and anxiety after the birth of my own son I lost all confidence and strength but Vinnie, Kelly, Luke and Kaydee show me how to be stronger for my own family. So I am going to do something I never thought I would. Run a marathon.
I am running Beachyhead in Eastbourne, it's extremely hilly and hard but I know now I can do it.
Look for me on Strava if you want to watch my training and I will be posting as much as possible.
Vinnies family pays out £500 a month just for his physio so please help me to relieve some of the burden they face. Xxxx
