<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p>
<p>On the 19th December 2011, My wee nephew Oran Ciaran was welcomed to our world with open arms. My sister Joanne and her husband Ciaran had their little boy, and we as a family could simply not be happier.</p>
<p>While we were over the moon that Oran was here, we knew he was three months too early. We hoped and we prayed that he would make it through. Oran was a strong wee fighter from the beginning and he fought hard to stay with us as long as he could. On the 8th January 2012, our world changed forever as Oran lost his fight and we lost a very precious little boy. Oran stayed with us for three weeks and we will forever be grateful that we got to meet him.</p>
<p>My two sisters, Elaine and Claire and me of course are going to do our very best to complete the Bupa Manchester 10k run. We are hoping to raise as much as possible to fund vital research to improve other premature babies chances. If we can prevent one more family from the loss of a baby, by doing this run...then we will have made Oran and his mummy and daddy proud.</p>
<p>So, whether you can support us and our cause, either a little or a lot, we will be incredibly honored and ever thankful.</p>
<p>I love you Oran, not just for who you were, but who I am when you are by my side.</p>
<p>All my love</p>
