<p style="color: rgb(38, 38, 38);">So, I am finally doing it... in April 2024 I will be running London Landmarks Half Marathon in memory of our beautiful son, Rufus (who died a week before his due date), to help improve the care given to bereaved parents facing the heartbreaking reality of saying one final 'goodbye' to their baby.</p><p style="color: rgb(38, 38, 38);">This will be a HUGE challenge for me; I am certainly not a natural runner having tried and failed at Couch to 5K numerous times, and it is definitely not something I enjoy! However, every time the going gets tough, I will remember how it felt when we heard those words, &#34;I'm sorry; there is no heartbeat&#34; and I will think of the 8 families every day tragically hearing the same, who need access to CuddleCots and fit for purpose bereavement suites in their time of need. </p><p style="color: rgb(38, 38, 38);">This is for you Rufus. Because your perfect toes never got the chance to touch the ground, I will run this for you. </p><p style="color: rgb(38, 38, 38);">Please sponsor me. I promised Billy I would never run a half-marathon, so the fact I have to deal with his smugness is worth at least a few pounds!</p>
