London Marathon 2024 · 21 April 2024 ·

The brain is the most complex organ in our body. It controls our emotions, senses and actions. So when it breaks down, we break down. We fund the best research to discover the causes, develop new treatments and improve the lives of those affected. Let’s unite to accelerate progress. Today.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Brain research has played a big part in my life over the last few years after having a bleed on the brain in 2020 and still awaiting a formal diagnosis and undergoing lots of tests.

July 2022 I weighed 21 stone I was suffering with migraines daily and stroke type symptoms and I could barely walk without being in pain.

June 2023 I am still awaiting tests to see what is going on in my brain but I am now 13 stone and getting fitter, healthier and stronger. My migraines are at an all time low and I haven’t had stroke type symptoms in a while.

So the next challenge is this London marathon I’m nervous I have doubts but with support I’ll push through.

Any donations would be greatly appreciated for this amazing charity and to push my training etc.
