Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Here's my story, throughout my life I have been warned about diabetes and how it affects your life. I never got the chance to meet my grandmother on my dad's side because of diabetes. My uncle died at the age of 52 because of it. And my dad suffers with it, thankfully he manages it quite well. I'm quite lucky so far it hasn't affected me but I try to look after myself.
Now James Clarke came in my life as he was my boyfriend's dad. He was diagnosed with many health issues. One of them was diabetes, it had to be managed by diet. Unfortunately he passed away 20th June 2021. He became a big part of my life and is truly missed. Before he passed away, I promised him I would run a marathon in his honor and thankfully I get a chance to raise money for a wonderful charity as well.
Please help me raise money and raise awareness about diabetes.
