If you feel like doing a good deed…

… and you’re into random acts of kindness because you’re generally a good person like that, which I know all my lovely blog readers are (that or you’ve all stopped reading my blog because of the incessant begging and pleading to sponsor me and I’m talking to myself here)…

… why not spare a few pennies, or even just a small space on your blog/facebook/twitter, to help us raise money for poorly children in England and Wales? Birmingham Children’s Hospital does an amazing job (I’m living proof of that) , and to show our appreciation, my fiance and I are running the Bupa Great Birmingham Run in October. Now then, for those of you who know me, you’ll know that running is never going to be my strong point, but I’m going to do it anyway – spurred on by the fact that my brother, whose last days were made comfortable by the hospital and its staff, would have been 15 on the date of the run, 21st October. It’s not going to be easy, I’m well aware of that, but it’d really help to spur us on if we know we have all your support, whether that’s by donating a little bit to my justgiving page – www.justgiving.com/madison-matthews – or even posting messages of encouragement and sharing the link to all your friends and followers.  We could really make a difference to the lives of families and sick children; but we can’t do it without your help!

Thanks for taking the time to read this, I’m sorry to keep bugging you but if you read the full story on my justgiving page, you’ll realize why it’s such an important cause to me and my family, and why I’m so desperate to raise the money for them.

Y’know, I’m gonna keep bugging you all..

..to read my JustGiving page and sponsor me! It’s such an important cause and the Run takes place on such an important date that I really want to raise as much money as possible for Birmingham Children’s Hospital. Now, I realize that it’s a tough time financially. I realize that many of you don’t know me and will never meet me, but I’m not asking you to sponsor me for me, I’m asking you to please consider donating something to Birmingham Children’s Hospital – I’m living, breathing proof of the great work they do, as are the memories my family have of my little brother – and there are hundreds of thousands more whose lives have been saved or transformed for the better by the amazing doctors and nurses there.
