Mike's running the Great North Run to support the British Thyroid Foundation

Great North Run 2017 · 10 September 2017 ·
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I knew nothing about over or under active thyroids until a year ago when my then 11 year old daughter was diagnosed with a very over active thyroid "Graves Disease". I thought this was a common and well understood condition, however I soon realised that it is much rarer in children, it can have a massive impact on their daily lives and although it can be treated this is a lifelong condition.
The British Thyroid Foundation provides valuable support and advice to parents and adults, whilst also supporting research and drug trials. They have been crucial for us as a family and will continue to be so for us and many families like us in the foreseeable future and therefore well worth supporting.
