<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p>
<p>"Charity" What is charity? Charity is the act of giving money, goods or time to the unfortunate, either directly or by means of a charitable trust or other worthy cause.</p>
<p>Whether your a believer in charity or not!! Thousands of charities run each day helping the unfortunate! To do so, it takes dedication, time and MONEY!</p>
<p>The Scottish War Blinded charity has shown me first hand what support charities can give! You can check them out for yourself on... <a href="http://www.royalblind.org/warblinded/">http://www.royalblind.org/warblinded/</a></p>
<p>I lost the sight in my right eye whilst on a training exercise in Kenya in Sept 08. Due to numerous complications, contracting a tropical infection, being heavily medicated and having undergone atleast one dozen operations without any success, I had surgery in May 2011 which resulted in me losing my right eye in a bid to prevent further complications.</p>
<p>This has had a major impact on my life at various levels. As a result I have been medically discharged from the Army, feel like I've lost my identity and see the marathon as a challenge that will give me a focus over the coming months.</p>
<p>So... now I'm able to move forward and I'm looking to complete the Edinburgh Marathon on May 27th, (not set a time yet). I'll just need to see how things go.</p>
<p><strong>Please Help</strong></p>
<p>Can you give a donation? Every little helps<strong>.</strong> You never know what is around the corner and what charity MIGHT come to your aid!!</p>
