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.

From Devastation to Redemption: How SPYHOST Helped Me Recover $2 Million in Crypto
I’m writing this today with a heart full of relief and gratitude — emotions I couldn’t have imagined feeling just a few weeks ago.
Not long ago, I went through what I can only describe as the worst experience of my life, My crypto wallet — the one holding $2,045,000, essentially my entire life savings — was hacked. I was completely blindsided. One moment everything seemed fine, and the next, my wallet was empty.
It turns out I had been the target of a Remote Access Trojan (RAT)— a type of cyberattack that silently gives hackers full control over your device. They didn’t just steal my money; they shattered my peace of mind.
I was devastated, angry, and completely lost. I couldn’t eat. I couldn’t sleep. I thought, “How do you even begin to recover from something like this?”
That’s when I was referred to SPYHOST CYBERSECURITY COMPANY — a name I’ll never forget for as long as I live.
From the very first conversation, I could tell I wasn’t just dealing with tech experts — I was dealing with professionals who actually cared. They listened to my story without judgment and immediately got to work.
What followed was nothing short of incredible. Their team used a mix of memory forensics (RAM analysis), private key and decryption recovery, malware tracing, disk forensics, and network monitoring— things I barely understood, but they explained every step of the way.
Against all odds, they recovered my wallet. Yes — the full amount. Over two million dollars. I still get goosebumps just writing that.
I’ve dealt with tech support before. I’ve hired “experts.” But I’ve never met a group like SPYHOST — ethical hackers with the skill, speed, and transparency that truly set them apart. They didn’t just recover my funds; they restored my trust.
If you’re reading this and going through something similar — whether you’ve lost crypto, fallen victim to an investment scam, or had your accounts compromised — don’t give up. There are real professionals out there who can help. And from my experience, SPYHOST is one of the best.

Hello to everyone around the globe. I’m Jefferey Vargas from Malta. My girlfriend ended our relationship for seemingly no reason and I came to understand that my financial struggles may have contributed to this, as a healthy relationship is difficult without money and aside from God, having more money is often seen as vital. For spellcasting, Lord Meduza is the right person to turn to. My girlfriend left me for another man due to my financial situation, but after connecting with Lord Meduza, he created a spell that not only brought my girlfriend back but also made me a lottery winner of €116 million by providing me with the 6 lucky numbers. Everything feels almost unreal but I assure you this is genuine and it’s occurring. My life is incredibly beautiful and I owe my deepest appreciation to Lord Meduza. I strongly encourage everyone here to reach him for help via email: lordmeduzatemple@hotmail.com OR you WhatsApp this number: +1 (807) 907-2687. As his efforts are the epitome of excellence.
