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 The Anthony Nolan Trust but it is also about me living the dream , 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 .

Accompanying me on their bikes will be my old school friend Glen Strachan and my old sailing friend Liz Wardley , whilst providing much needed support in our van will be my long time friend Pat Jolly .

 

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 .
