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.

My name is Lynn Reed from North Carolina, and I lost $603,000 worth of Bitcoin in a targeted SIM swap scam.

From Despair to Triumph: How SPYHOST CYBERSECURITY Helped Me Recover $300K in Bitcoin
In the depths of what felt like my darkest hour, I’m thrilled to finally share a story I never thought I’d be able to tell—a story of loss, hope, and a miraculous recovery that still feels surreal.
I had accidentally sent $300,000 worth of Bitcoin to a wrong wallet address. One small mistake… and just like that, my entire savings vanished into the blockchain abyss. Panic set in. Sleepless nights followed. I thought it was gone forever.
But just when I was ready to give up, a glimmer of hope appeared. My uncle, a tech savvy and calm under pressure recommended I reach out to SPYHOST CYBERSECURITY COMPANY. At first, I was skeptical. I’d heard horror stories about crypto recovery scams. But after researching their background and seeing real success stories, I decided to take a leap of faith.
And that leap changed everything.
The team at SPYHOST moved swiftly and professionally, guiding me through every step. Within a short time, they had done what I thought was impossible: They recovered every single satoshi of my lost Bitcoin.
I was stunned. Grateful beyond words. And above all, reminded that not all hope is lost—even in the wild world of crypto.
If you’re facing a similar nightmare—don’t give up. Don’t panic. And most importantly, don’t trust just anyone. But if you’re looking for real help from a team that delivers, I strongly recommend contacting SPYHOST directly via [Spyhost@cyberdude.com]
Your story doesn’t have to end in loss. Sometimes, the right help can turn a crisis into a comeback.
