Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
In 2020 I was faced with neurological issues that were caused by Covid. My journey from 2020 to the present took me through the terrifying journey of neurologists, nuroscientists and specialist diagnostic professors. From being unable to move the left hand side of my body, being unable to walk and function in ways I had only months before, the neurological investigatory journey is tedious, frightening and it causes so much pain and stress for families. It is a living nightmare.
I am one of the lucky ones, my months and months of tests identified lifelong neurological damage but thankfully I was not diagnosed with a nurodegenerative terminal illness.
Now 5 years later, as part of a team of 4, (the average age being late 20's, I will be 49) i am taking part in the Apex Games, preparation is Hyrox training with additional home and road training. An opportunity to finally put the covid neurology issues in order, an opportunity to put my body at its best limit and not its worse, and an opportunity to raise funds for 'My Name'5 Doddie' (MND).
I am delighted to finally be in a position where I can give back by asking you to help me raise funds for MND as I push the body boundaries that so many others who are impacted by this awful disease have had taken away from them.
Thank you
