Mcauleys British Channel Swim ‍♀️

Hello, Friends, Family and even kind hearted strangers.

My names Mcauley Probert just your regular hard working

young man from Abertillery, South Wales. And on the 13th of January

2024. Me and my families’ lives changed forever.

At roughly 01:30 AM on that Saturday Morning I was awaken by

my parents due to my mother hearing strange noises coming from my younger

sister Morgan’s bedroom. To which I discovered my sister having a cardiac

arrest. I lifted her out of bed placed her on her bedroom floor and began

giving chest compressions awaiting arrival of the paramedics.

After suffering 2 cardiac arrests within the short space of

2 hours the amazing paramedics managed to keep her stable enough to transfer

her to Llanfrechfa Grange hospital for treatment to try save her life. The

amazing Intensive care staff gave her a fighting chance. Until it was decided

that the only way, she would of stood a chance of surviving was if she was

taken into care of the staff at the Royal Brompton And Harefield Hospital in

London.

She arrived in London surrounded by some of the best

Cardiologists not only in the United Kingdom but the world where they tried

absolutely everything to save her life but on the 17th of January

2024 my younger sister morgan could not fight any longer and gained her wings

surrounded by her nearest and dearest.

 

I have done many sponsored swims in the past a 10km and 20km

being among the longer distances for cancer research after my mother got

diagnosed with cancer.

But due to the magnitude of the situation me and my family

currently find ourselves in I have decided to go for the big one this time. I

have recently registered with the British Channel Swimming Association and in

2025 will be attempting the Dover straight also known as the British Channel.

This is a 22/23 Mile swim across one of the busiest shipping channels in the

world from Dover in Kent to Wissant in Northern France.

 

I am not only doing this in memory of My beloved sister

Morgan. But to raise awareness of how dangerous the condition Dilated

Cardiomyopathy a condition she become ill with after receiving the Covid

Vaccinations which were strongly advised she had due to her position working

within the NHS

And I know she isn’t alone in being one of many people in

the United Kingdom being Diagnosed with this cardio-vascular disease due to

these vaccinations.

 

I wanted to do something that could raise a lot of money for

charities close to not only mine but my families’ hearts. As we could never be

able to repay the staff that tried continuously save my sisters life and even

the charity that helped my family through the grieving progress.

 

The charities that I’d like to split the money between Are

as follows:

 

The British Heart foundation.

The Royal Brompton and Harefield Hospitals Charity.

2Wish

Wales Air Ambulance Charity.

 

All My progress in terms of training and the amount of money

being raised on a weekly or monthly basis will be posted on my social media

account Instagram. To follow my journey, feel free to follow and donate by
