Friends, family, colleagues and even strangers have been incredibly generous with helping to raise the money needed for my wife to have an operation to close the hole in her heart. This hole was the cause of her stroke in July 2016. Without the operation she is a high risk of having another stroke which could be permanently debilitating or even fatal. The NHS won't carry out the operation due to funding cuts so we need to have it done privately at a cost of almost £20,000. Due to people's generosity we are now just hoping to raise the final £6000.

Any help you you can give will be hugely appreciated and help keep our family whole.

Thank you for your kind attention.

Rob and Leeann Lee.
