Event: London marathon 2012

Charitie(s) Supported: Great Ormond Street Childrens Hospital London,The Cardiomyopathy Association,
We are raising money for two charities close to our hearts in celebration of our beautiful daughter Rose who died in January, aged just two and a half at Great Ormond Street Hospital in London.
Rose had the rare heart muscle disease restrictive cardiomyopathy.She died before she had the opportunity to receive a heart transplant. Despite her health problems she had a very happy and fun life and has inspired many people with her bravery. Please watch the short video to see how happy and special she was, click on Rose's photograph.
Paul (Nod) will be running the London Marathon 2012 in April in memory of Rose, dressed as Rose's favourite animal - a penguin!
We are raising money for Great Ormond Street Hospital, whose dedicated staff fought so hard to save Rose and the Cardiomyopathy Association, who provided us with invaluable information when Rose was diagnosed.
Many thanks for your donation.
Donna and Paul
