Hi all,
Well last week was exciting I must say! I appeared on Tv3′s Ireland AM to discuss my campaign. It was so exciting! The feedback I received was incredible. Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.
Within hours of being on, my email was flooded with people from around the country telling me their own personal battles with Ewing’s.
I felt very proud afterwards:) If you missed it you can watch it on Tv3′s website.
The presenters made me feel so welcome which settled my nerves a bit:)
Afterwards I travelled to Dundrum to meet with Don Nugent who set up the Ross Nugent Foundation. He is a lovely man with a huge heart.
Unfortunately Don lost his son Ross to Ewing’s in 2010 and along with his family he set up the foundation in Ross’s memory.
They do wonderful work and I am delighted to support such a worthy cause.
This week I decided to not go ahead with my up coming operation as I just don’t feel that now is the right time for it. I would rather put up with the pain than give up my campaign.
My next challenge will be diving which I am extremely excited about! Stay tuned:)
You can find me on Facebook under the heading Fighting Fit For Ewing’s.
