❤️ 62 MILES FOR BIRMINGHAM CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL ❤️
My husband John has signed up to run 62 miles throughout October to raise money for Birmingham Children’s Hospital, and after everything my family has been through, this is a charity that means so incredibly much to us.
After losing my sister, this hospital has become even closer to our hearts. My sister’s twin boys were born prematurely, and Edward was born with a heart condition which meant he had to be transferred to Birmingham Children’s Hospital and taken into intensive care.
It was touch and go, and there were moments when we genuinely thought we might lose him. 💔
But thanks to the incredible expertise, dedication and care of the surgeons, doctors and nurses at Birmingham Children’s Hospital, Edward pulled through. He was able to go home at just 4 weeks old.
Fast forward 9 years and that tiny little boy is now a happy, healthy 9-year-old who lives life to the full, with just his yearly check-ups. 🥰
Birmingham Children’s Hospital is a truly special place. A place where incredibly talented people work tirelessly to give children the chance they deserve, and where families are given hope when they need it most. They really do perform miracles. ❤️
John is currently at an absolutely amazing £630 already, but we’d love to see if we can help him reach £1,000.
If you’re able to donate, even a few pounds would mean so much to us and would help support other children and families who may find themselves in the same position we once did.
Thank you so much for reading, sharing and supporting John. ❤️
Good luck John… 62 miles! You’ve got this! 🏃♂️❤️
