The John `O Groats to Lands End , End - End Epic , trip will by no means be easy - it
will be very tough - especially considering I`ve spent the last year in and out of hospital fighting for my life ... again
, on more than one occasion battling chronic ITP as well as but on a seperate front to Chronic Myloid Leukaemia . I am
currently receiving 3 platelet transfusions a week to avoid serious internal haemorrhaging which
would be ... fatal :-( . On my trip I will still need these life saving transfusions and am planning to have my special HLA
Matched platelets sent to various hospitals along the route .
Doing the End - End Epic is about raising funds
and much needed awareness for Leukaemia sufferers but it
is also about me keeping the dream alive , keeping moving and staying one step infront of Leukaemia and
trying not to get caught !
The trip will definently be cold and wet but I have chosen to do it because
it is something that I believe in and it will be one of the most rewarding things I think I will ever do .
Joining me for a few days at the end will be my old school friend Glen Strachan whilst providing much needed support in
our van for the trip will be my very long time primary school friend Ollie Hilton .
I invite
you to be a part of our important mission . With your help we will continue to make a difference
and awaken the spirit of hope in all of us .
