In summer 2020, my 26 year-old sister was diagnosed with MuSK Myasthenia Gravis (MG), a rare autoimmune disorder in which your antibodies attack the communication system between your muscles and brain. Her symptoms have included double vision, loss of balance and a myasthenic crisis in which the respiratory muscles were effected.

Myaware is a charity that raises awareness, conducts research and supports victims of this illness in a variety of ways. Since her diagnosis, Myaware has continually helped my sister understand and adapt her lifestyle to MG in a number of ways. 

To thank and fundraise for them I will be jumping out a plane at 10,000 ft and travelling at a top speed of 120 mph. EVERY donation big or small will go a long way and will be IMMENSELY appreciated by my family and I.
