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.

BITCOIN RECOVERY IN DUBAI, USA, UK, ASIA, GERMANY: HIRE DUNE NECTAR WEB EXPERT TO RECLAIM LOST CRYPTO.
Numerous online trading platforms and exchange platforms have, unfortunately, led to an unavoidable surge in fraudulent activities, a reality I experienced firsthand. During the initial stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, I actively sought legitimate avenues to generate passive income, aiming to mitigate the significant financial setbacks my business had incurred due to the global crisis. This pursuit led me to explore investments in binary options and forex trading, a decision that, in retrospect, proved to be a critical error. Unfortunately, I encountered sophisticated scammers and con artists, which ultimately resulted in a substantial loss of 15.70137 BTC. The financial and emotional toll of this experience left me feeling utterly despondent and hopeless. I consulted with my legal counsel, who recommended that I contact a specialized ethical hacking and recovery firm known as DuneNectar-WebExpert.

Hello everyone, my name is Elliot Anderson from Canada. I have always wanted to be able to not live paycheck to paycheck or have any debt. I worked in accounting for about 20 years and was barely able to make ends meet. It seemed like any time I moved up in the company and received a raise, my living expenses would go up significantly and I was never able to get ahead. Then one day my best friend told me the truth about what he did that made him rich, My friend told me he saw a post on a blog about how this great spell caster helped this person with a Lotto 649 winning number and he won. So my friend also contacted this spell caster called Dr Uwaifo who helped him win $320,000,00 and i did believe it, but i see how my friend got himself a new car, house, and he opened a little business. So when my friend told me Dr Uwaifo make it all happen, i quickly run to contact Dr Uwaifo and he cast the spell and give me Lotto 649 winning numbers, I play lotto 649 and what i receive next was a phone text message that I’m among of the people that win lotto 649, the amount i won is $360,000.00. I’m now a happy man, I got myself a new house and car. I will still keep on playing lotto 649. Are you looking for a trusted and powerful spell caster to help you win the lottery? Contact Dr Uwaifo Call Number: +1(315) 277-2762 & Email:druwaifospelltemple@gmail.com
Are you aware that Cryptocurrency can be Recovered?
You certainly can. Greetings to all. My name is Amice, and someone I met online on an unverified investment proposal defrauded me of nearly $123,000. Before I saw numerous testimonials with respect to WIZARD JAMES RECOVERY, I began looking for legal assistance to get my money back. I gave them the details I needed to get in touch with them, and to my utter amazement, they assisted me in getting my money back within a few hours. Right now, I feel so joyful and relieved. I think there are people out there who have fallen for those fraudulent online investment scams and lost a lot of money. They can be contacted at wizardjamesrecovery@usa.com, if you require comparable assistance.
