Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
My daughters have recently been diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder called Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia 1.This came as a bit of a shock to us. I have really struggled to find anyone to talk to on the Isle of Wight about this and everyone I spoke to had no idea what it was this includes medical professionals. As a parent I have struggled with this and was told to contact a charity group called AMEND . I cannot praise them enough! they have been amazing with information and resources that are child friendly. They also provide counseling for those with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia disorders and their families. I am running a marathon on10/11/21 and my 4 children will be running the last 4 miles with me. I am doing this marathon to raise awareness about MEN disorders and to raise money for AMEND so that they can continue their fantastic work. I also want to promote a healthy lifestyle for my children and show them that no matter what they face in the future if they look after themselves with a healthy diet and plenty of exercise they will be Fit to Fight anything.
