Myself, my husband & two dear friends are climbing Snowdon in September, my dad passed away very suddenly after having kidney failure amongst a huge list of health issues,, he was a fighter, the strongest most courageous man I know, and I'm so very proud to call him my dad.
Only a week before he passed I went to see my parents and talked about wanting to climb snowdon this summer,, always wanted to it, was a bucket list kinda thing.
What did daddio say to me "whatch those bloody knees! You know what your like!"'
So dearest daddio I'm now doing this in your memory, to get to the top and say this ones for you!! And hopefully raise some money for Telford PRH dialysis unit. The nurses work tirelessly 6 days a week, the ward is ran from 6 am until 8 pm they only close Sundays and Christmas Day! They become another part of your family, especially for the patients who spend 4 hours 3 times a week there for as long as possible, lots manage to receive a healthy donor kidney. This wasn't the case for Tommy,, he was so ill and would never of survived the operation that myself or my brother would of gladly given one of ours. So this is to say thank you , you kept him alive for 5 years on that ward,, more than most I know only too well,, we were the lucky ones to have had all that borrowed time.
I know there are so many charities out there but please, just £1 or anything you can spare from your hard earned wage will be so very gratefully received and hopefully help another dear daddio out there.
Thank you. X
