Staying away from home with late stage MND is an absolute mission. Specialist accommodation is massively rare so I stopped looking for accommodation that has everything I need a long time ago. Instead I find places that have enough space and hire or travel with all my equipment. To give you an idea my packing list for this trip had 76 items on it...
Of course I can't physically help to pack any of that, and trying to control too much of the process is a very fast path to massive frustration. However its not easy to let go when so much of that equipment is essential to keeping me alive and cared for, I need to have a lot of trust in my care team and thankfully I do.
Then of course there are the people who will physically push me around the London Marathon. Taking responsibility for my care at the same time. Not only do they have to be physically fit enough to comfortably run 26.2 miles, they have to monitor me and provide any interventions I may need. Distance running is traditionally a solo pursuit, taking on responsibility for me as well is a heroic effort in my view.
Then there are the people who organise the administrative side, the logistics and the publicity. Making sure all my equipment is where it needs to be, everyone has their accreditation, and that we raise some cash for research and care too.
In total that covers around 12 people. The vast majority of whom are unpaid. Those who are paid receive a fraction of what they deserve (that's a whole other blog post) and go above and beyond to help me a
ttempt these ridiculous challenges. Those 12 people are just the tip of the iceberg, my family, friends, trustees and of course all the amazing people who follow and support the charity all have my heartfelt gratitude. I don't really know how I've created this incredible support, or why so many people are willing to give up their time and energy to support me and the charity. It's beyond anything I hoped for or anticipated when we started Stand Against MND and I'm humbled by it.
It gives me the will to carry on, a purpose. Helps me maintain a positive attitude whilst being assaulted by the most brutal disease. Thank you. Every single one of you.

Thank you so much for reading.

I am Emma Hayes from New Jersey. My herpes virus turned to war after 4 years of living with it. I have tried different medical procedures to cure my herpes but to no avail. Most people think herpes is only a minor skin irritation of which herpes has long term effects on health and passes through the bloodstream and can be easily contracted through sexual intercourse. I knew I had herpes from the first day I started feeling itchy in my pubic area and the pain was very unbearable. I couldn’t stand it anymore. After 2 years of trying other means to get rid of it, I had to contact Doctor Harry to help me with a permanent cure. I saw his email and Whatsapp number from a testimony I read online from a lady who was also helped by him in curing infertility problems, I had faith and contacted him on his email address drharrysolution@gmail.com He assured me of his work and I ordered his herbal medicine and got it through UPS and started using it according to his instructions and Within days, I didn’t feel any pain anymore and within 3 weeks, my skin was all cleared and smooth, the sores in my pubic area all gone and healed i was so happy because of this shameful illness i lost my high school sweetheart and made me depressed so that’s why i promised to share my testimony with everyone online to hear and experience this great healing, you are indeed a blessing to this planet and i will do my best to make sure you are known in the united states . I am very grateful to you sir and I write this testimony as others have done to bring those having faith to you sir. If you have herpes HPC stroke pile , small manhood size ,low sperm count, erectile dysfunction, lupus disease ,Hiv/aids , spiritual help of all kinds or other similar disease ,you want it cured, kindly contact Doctor Harry on his WhatsApp number +2349036417079 , Email him on drharrysolution@gmail.com OR website: https://drharrysolutionhea.wixsite.com/healinghome God bless you all as you contact him
