I'm walking All Night Long! But I need your help

I'm joining a celebration of courage to raise funds for sick kids and their families.
Each day can feel like a marathon for sick kids - which is why I'm walking 42km this October. 

I'm excited for the challenge of walking 'all night long', gossiping with Hayley and Michelle (who I've teamed up with for the adventure) and getting fit in the process. Let's hope it doesn't rain!

When I first came into the world, I was one of the sick kids. I was born with a hole in my heart (the size of a 20c piece) and spent way too much time in ICU (babies with holes in their hearts are known as blue babies). I was one of the lucky ones, with my heart repaired at 5 weeks old, and went home at 7 weeks old to start my dazzling life with the Sheppard crew. 

Will you please donate what you can?

Yep, this is going to be a challenge, and I'm going to be exhausted at the end. But it will be so worth it, and it's a fraction of what families with sick kids go through. Plus, how great that I'm healthy enough to be able to walk 42km these days, a contrast to 11 years back. Please donate now. 💛
