Story
Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
As one is not getting any younger I have volunteered myself (before it's to late) to take part in the greatest / toughest challenge of my life. On 27 September 2011: I, along with 5 others are intending to cycle the 1000 miles from John O'Groats to Lands End in 12 days to raise as much money as possible for a charity that is very close to my heart and home.
The Charcot Marie Tooth Disease (CMT/D) study's muscle atrophy and nerve degenerative. Although there is no cure for this disabling disorder as yet: CMT are researching how to improve the quality of life to those affected. Prevention, by looking into the genes and proteins that effect this disorder and hopefully find a cure that will stop it from being past on through child birth.
Please read through the CMT/D site and get a greater understanding of what this disease does to the body and what is being done about it, I hope it touches your heart as it does mine daily.
