Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Both Eric and myself will be trekking together for the Pituitary foundation because 10 years ago our family life changed when Eric my husband was diagnosed with a rare pituitary tumour. His courage, humour and determination has always shone through ,despite his silent but painful suffering.
He has gone through painful monthly injections, completed a course of radiosurgery and major surgery to remove the tumour from his pituitary gland . He takes daily medication to ensure he stays healthy to complete normal everyday activities and to run a relatively normal life . Everyday he suffers painful headaches and joint pain due to the excessive growth hormone in his body .
I'm doing this walk to raise money to continue research and support for the group ,so that one day they find a cure . This page is dedicated to my husband to thank him for being so courageous and giving his best to his family .
So please give any amount to help. Those who know Eric will not realise how much he really suffers with this terrible disease.
Thank you. Diane x
