Phoenix Zamikula
Phoenix's marathon in a week
Fundraising for The Brain Tumour Charity
Story
Earlier this year, we learned the terrifying and devastating news that 2 of my mum's childhood friends were facing the biggest battle and challenge of their lives which is thankfully inconceivable for most of us. They both have children who were diagnosed with Cancer. Kaitlyne was only 13 going on 14 and Harry was only 1 going on 2. For me and my mum, we can only imagine what their families are going through and have cried many tears for them. We have also been so very moved by Azaliya and are heartbroken for her family. All 3 of these wonderful, precious and awesome mini and not quite as mini human beings have shown such strength, courage and determination and are an inspiration to us all.
I wanted to do something to help and felt compelled to do something. Therefore I have decided to take on the challenge of running a marathon in the week of half term. (This will probably be a run/walk though).
I would really appreciate your donations to the two great charities I am doing this for.
