Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As many of you will know, my life was changed forever just over 8 years ago when I had my first miscarriage. The grief and pain I felt at the loss of the baby I already loved was overwhelming. I went on to have a further 13 miscarriages after that first one, each one painful and each one a baby that I loved and grieved for. I needed support and I needed to be able to talk about each and every one of my babies. I am passionate that we should break the silence surrounding pregnancy and baby loss and be there for  each other and also that funding has to be provided for research to reduce the number of babies lost-every life counts! I would love to raise money for Tommy's to facilitate even a small part of their fantastic work.

I am eternally besotted with my two beautiful rainbow babies, but as a fellow grieving mum once said-the rainbow is amazing and beautiful and so special but you are still left soaking from the rain that came before it. So I am running a half marathon, which I am going to have to train so hard to be able to do and which seems almost impossible right now (but which I will achieve for this amazing cause) in honour of Sebastian, Elsie and my other 14 loves.

If you would be able to donate anything, no matter how small, I would be really grateful.
