In 2016, I was involved in a severe road traffic accident that resulted in a crushed spine, causing a partial severance of my L2 spinal cord. Following a grueling 10-month hospitalization, doctors delivered the devastating news that I would never walk again. However, through sheer determination, bulletproof mindset and years of relentless self-rehabilitation, I have defied the initial prognosis. Despite remaining paralyzed below the knee, Im now able to walk with the assistance of crutches and braces.

Since then, I have persistently challenged the limits of what is considered impossible. A significant personal goal for me is to complete a half marathon, and I am thrilled to announce my participation in this year's Great North Run!

Your sponsorship would mean the world to me and serve as a powerful demonstration of your support. I am fundraising for the Great North Air Ambulance, a charity that holds a special place in my heart.

Thank you sincerely for taking the time to read my message
