Story

My birthday is the beginning of March and I don't need anything but what I would like is if anyone is able at all to sponsor me to run 28miles this February for SANDS Sands, the stillbirth & neonatal death charity​​ in memory of my eldest boy Lucian Haydes Johnson who is 10 right now in heaven. Sands sponsors a bereavement room at the hospital and they allowed me to spend the evening with Lucian even though he'd passed in my arms, I couldn't leave him and they understood, that act of kindness allowed me time and moments to say goodbye and help toward my new way of living before I left the next morning empty handed. I'd like to help raise money to help others in their grief. Its been a while since i did a challenge and everyone knows I love to walk however . . . . . running . . . . I can run a bath but that's as good as it gets lol . . . Come with me through the pain and no doubt laugher of wetting myself whilst running or falling over . . . . Loads love x

7th Run

7th March 2023
I won't lie, this run was emotional, I cried most way round and broke down when I got home. Running past so many people with my Sands, the stillbirth & neonatal death charity tshirt on feeling proud I was running for Lucian, for other babies and for families out there who deal with this pain. But then imagining he was running beside me with Akillees just broke me, he should be here turning 11 this year. Longer run today, I'm now mentally, physically and emotionally drained. All showered with fresh pj's now to put a film on. Have a lovely Sunday x
