Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Experiencing my 1st  death was always going to be hard, however I never imagined it would be my big brothers funeral that would be my 1st funeral.  5weeks before his 19th birthday he tragically passed away, due to complications of type 1 diabetes.  Diagnosed aged 7years old in 1977 life was never the same again, diabetes was unknown to many & treatment, compared to now, was totally different. Diabetes dictated every moment of our childhood & there were times my brother ,Craig, was in hospital more than home. Thankfully research has progressed and more and more children have been given their childhoods back, I want to see this continue for future generations and families.  

A huge thank you for all your donations, every penny is greatly appreciated and will assist in research going forward.  

Craig, your death will not be in vain and you will never be forgotten.
