My Memory Walk finished

Today was our last day for our month of walking 27th April - 27th May.Β 

What an incredibly humbling and emotional journey the past month has been. At the start I didn’t know how I would do the 120kms I could hardly walk 1km, but each day I’d try to go a bit further and today I finished on a 9.1km walk. 22kms past my goal.Β 

Some days has been hard with the weather, but I’ve rugged Emmy up, thrown on the rain cover for the pram and kept walking because this Memory Walk has meant so much to me and for everyone impacted by Dementia especially my Aunty Pat, my cousins and extended family.Β 

Dementia is such an incredibly cruel disease that is so unbelievably hard on families to watch their loved ones lose their faculties.Β 

What I’d give to hear this laugh again!
This is for you Aunty Pat, I miss you, I love you xxΒ 

Thank you again for all the love, support and donations it is so appreciated xx

We have reached our target!

Today we hit our target of 120kms and I couldn’t be happier! Anything now is a bonus!Β

Today is day 10 and we’ve walked 51kms. Loving the fresh air - but not the sore calves!!

Official Start Day

Today 1st May is our official start day!Β 

It was freezing this morning so we did a quick 3km walk before the rain came!Β 

4 years

Today my Facebook memories popped up with a photo of Aunty Pat, Rhiarne and I - today marks 4 years since Aunty Pat moved into a care facility, where her family visit her everyday. I’m doing this as much for them as I am Aunty Pat, we love you guys xx

Starting Early - 27th April πŸƒπŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸŒ¨β„οΈ

We have decided to start a few days early as the weather over weekend is going to be raining and freezing and I’m still waiting for Emmy’s Rain cover for her Pram 😩

Going to pump up the kms in next few days to compensate! πŸƒπŸ»β€β™€οΈ

Training!

We did another 4.9kms today in training!Β 

Pumped the music and enjoyed the sun shining today.Β 

I’m doing MY Memory Walk for my darling Aunty Pat and to raise funds for individuals and families affected by Dementia.

I’ll be completing MY Memory Walk to raise funds to support people with Dementia, a cause very close to my heart, as my beautiful Aunty Pat who is like a Grandmother to me has Dementia, and other loved family members abroad and I have seen first hand the devastating impact of this insidious disease on not only the individual but their families.

It hurts Aunty Pat won’t get to know Emilia as I know she would absolutely adore her. I miss her terribly.Β 

Times are hard but please if you’re able to make a donation even $2 to support my efforts and help me reach my goal to beat dementia, it would be so greatly appreciated.Β 

All funds raised will support the work of Dementia Australia to provide vital support services for people living with dementia, their families and carers. These services include counselling, support groups, education and training.

Thank you for your support big or small. Much appreciated xx
