We are Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity. We stop at nothing to help give seriously ill children childhoods that are fuller, funner and longer. Because we believe no childhood should be lost to illness.

Story

Is she/isn't she going?

She wasn't but she is now! It's a long story but I have two weeks to raise as much as I can forGreatOrmondStreetHospitaland condition my body for the longest walk/run/crawl/jog of m'life to date so please DIG DEEP as they say and sponsor away.

Am raising money for GOSH after watching a documentary about a VERY brave boy called Kyle Smal who is suffering from a rare immune deficiency disease (CD40 Ligand Deficiency for those with a medical background). See: http://www.five.tv/media/pdf/11972375.pdf for more info.

Kyle is now 7 years old and couldn't stop smiling/caring about everyone else when he was suffering immense pain during his treatments. At the moment he is being looked after by his parents at home; the risks of a second bone marrow transplant are too great...

His courage will hopefully inspire me to keep going until I reach the finish line- despite my dodgy leg/knee... It pales in to insignificance. 

Finally, I am open to suggestions re silly costumes, but for now please get your credit/debit cards ready and help me reach my fund-raising target.

Thank-you for absorbing the above and for your subsequent generosity.

Natalie
