Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

There are some people that light up a room with a smile and Maisie was one of them. To give thanks to the care she was given by Rachel House and for the life that Maisie had I’m taking on a crazy marathon going up and down necessity brae in Perth. I’d love your support on this challenge by digging deep and sponsoring me please. It’s a worthy cause for the help they give to families supporting a sick child. Thanks for all your support, Jimmy

Here are some words from Maisie’s mum and dad.

“Maisie sadly passed away at the very young age of 12. She absolutely loved life and was such a sociable little girl (some might say a flirt). Maisie was well known in the running club (PRR) and even came 3rd in the club's summer series races one year.

Over the last 2 years Maisie health sadly deteriorated, she was transferred to Rachel House in February this year for end of life care. The team at Rachel House are amazing and the work that they do on a daily basis is just above and beyond. They made her last days more special than we could have ever hoped for. “

Thanks again everyone
