Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Over the past 7 months I’ve seen my dad take on the challenges of living with colitis, which has been totally debilitating for him at times. He has put on a brave face, had many hospital appointments and tried a number of medications without much success so far. He is an absolute hero and walking 10k is nothing compared to some of the challenges he has faced.
If you can donate anything - however big or small - then that would be great as Crohn’s and Colitis UK is a source of support for those living with the diseases and funding helps to sustain that. Please also have a look into Crohn’s and Colitis as raising awareness is just as important as raising money.
UPDATE: As medication wasn’t working, my dad needed to have surgery to remove the majority of his large intestine. He now has a stoma and an ostomy bag and is slowly but surely getting his life back and enjoying being on the road to recovery! Not necessarily the outcome he had hoped for but an end to just how debilitating Colitis had become for him.
