Yesterday I completed a gruelling 7 hour (mostly uphill) 20 mile walk to raise money for Lync to the Stars, a community interest company which was born out of tragic circumstances.
The aim is to support families which are suffering the complete devastation of the loss of a child.
Genna and Lee set this up after their son, Lync, sadly and unexpectedly passed away at the age of 2. Their determination to carry on his legacy and use his loss as something positive is simply awe inspiring.
Whilst walking 20 miles in the summer heat was tough, and though my hips and thighs are screaming at me, and the blisters on my feet have blisters of their own, my pain today is nothing compared to theirs, and the thought of Lync’s family carrying on in the face of such adversity spurred me on to keep going.
I want to thank every single person who donated, and continues to do so, and I want to thank Genna and Lee for firstly trusting me to care for their precious boy, and then inviting me to take part in such a wonderful day yesterday.
