This October, I’m taking on 5k a day, to raise money for Tommy’s.
In August, I had a miscarriage. I may have been naïve, but I never realised just how devastating baby loss could be. It’s not just a moment and can be a lifetime of loss.
My own experience was hard. I was told I “probably wasn’t miscarrying” and to book a scan the following week. I’m rhesus negative, and even while passing a much-wanted pregnancy, I had to fight to get the anti-D injection I needed. Women deserve better care than this. I know that many face even more challenging situations, with experiences that show just how urgently change is needed.
That’s why I’m doing this. Tommy’s fund life-saving research into miscarriage, stillbirth and premature birth. I want fewer families to face the silence, the trauma, and the lack of answers that so many of us are left with.
If you’re able to support me, every donation big or small will make a difference.
