hey guys, I know ive been a bit of a stranger for a while now, but i could do with everyones help. I have been selected by the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign to run for them in the Virgin London Marathon. For those of you unfamiliar with the disease it is a hereditary condition in which the muscles of the body progressively weaken. In many cases sufferers may experience fast and severe muscle weakness and wasting, dying in their late teens to early 20s. They are often wheelchair bound from an early age. I have worked with the condition for a number of years now both in the UK and USA. I am currently a PCA for a young guy with MD in Newcastle and can tell you from first hand experience the effect it has on each individuals quality of life and life span. The hard part is i need to raise a minimum of £1500 for the charity. It will go toward further research into finding a cure for the disease. I am prepared to run my ass over 26miles of the finiest London streets and hope you will support me generously in this. I have attached a link to my fundraising page for you to donate to. Your contribution will not go unnoticed and will be greatly appreciated. many thanks Jock [a href="http://www.justgiving.com/Jonathan-Jackson "]http://www.justgiving.com/Jonathan-Jackson [/a] Attachments:
