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.

If you ever need hacking services, look no further. I found myself in a difficult situation after losing almost $510,000 USD in bitcoin. I was distraught and had no hope of survival because i lost my life savings to this schme, I had no chance of recovering my investment. Until i came accrose an article on google about (jamesmckaywizard at gmail.com) A real life recovery expert, everything changed completely after contacting him and explaining my odeal to him and he quickly stepped in and assisted me in recovering 95% of my lost funds. They guarantee their clients and i got the highest level of happiness their services are highly recommended. so i’m putting this here for anyone who require their services too":Email:jamesmckaywizard at gmail dot com or what’sapp +316 (5744) 6248.
I’m Lawal from Dubai. I was exploited by a Crypto Exchange Investment Platform and was made to invest $198,000 worth of crypto to this company. They made it all look real and it was impossible to easily figure out the sham they were running. I was just like every other curious person and investor who decided to invest in cryptocurrency trading all in the aim of making profit, but I was exploited and lost my hard-earned money to this service, if not for the intervention of Mr. James, a cyber security and crypto recovery expert who was able to help top officials from the government/companies recover their emails and cryptocurrency successfully, I would have not been able to recover my crypto assets. The spammers had contacted me through a popular social media platform (Facebook) which I later found out to be a sham, But James made me realize many other victims like me invested in this platform, I’m bringing this to you here that it was a scam to steal crypto from people. James was able to recover my crypto successfully and has since been able to assist two of my partners in recovering their crypto from this same online crypto investment platform. If you wish to contact James for any help regarding lost of funds or any social media hacking and recovery services, you can reach them via the info below: Email:jamesmckaywizard at gmail dot com or what’sapp +31-65-74- 46- 248.
I saved my coins on this fake exchanger platform. I trusted them with my coins, thinking it would be safe with them but it wasn’t. I woke up one day and found out all my bitcoin had been transferred out. I never gave permission for this, I never gave my recovery phrase for this and I never gave any passwords for this. I contacted them and they did nothing to help. They refused to give me an explanation of what happened and why. It took a long time before I could be able to hold them responsible for what they did. It is a pattern of theirs to lure you in to trust their platform with you thinking your coins are safe with their exchanger, they deny you all these. Thanks for the support of ( ACCESSRECOVERYCONSULTANT @ GMAIL COM ) who took matter into their hands to help adjudicate and resolve the matter, I got back my funds and they got blacklisted as far as I am concerned. I advise you to do
