On Sunday 8 June (2025), my brother Kevin and I will be running for the ItsME Foundation to support research into meningitis. Unfortunately, this is something our daughter Femm experienced. Nobody recognised it, and thanks to my tip to the nurse and her keen observation, Femm's life was saved. The doctors acted well, it was just that the symptoms weren't recognised. After 6 weeks of intensive care, Femm has recovered. Now the question is, how will she manage at school? Things that are no longer a given for us. That's why I'm a supporter of more research! Would you like to sponsor me for this?
Best wishes, Shirley
