hey all,

I am back- and this time I am walking 100k in 24 hours along the transpenine trail for the British Lung Foundation. it's going to be tough but it's for my dad who suffered more than I will ever know from IPF. My walk is a testimony to his life and as a tribute to him- to tell him just how much I loved him.

For any of you that would like to sponsor me- link is below.

thanks so much. I cannot tell you how touched I am when someone I have never even met cares enough to donate. I wish some of the people I knew were so generous in spirit and kindness. Thanks from the bottom of my heart
