My Personal Giving to My Family
Donation protected
Hi Everyone,
I'm not very good at voicing my emotion sometimes especially when it comes to something as personal as this.
But as many as you know a few years ago I lost my older brother to a long battle of a spinal injury and then shortly after I lost my mum to a short battle of cancer.
I always find hard to talk about it or deal with it in the right way.
This year I want to try and turn this into a positive, i've fundraised for Farleigh Hospice and animal charities throughout the years and i'm well aware that everyone has their own battles but i'm seeking this as a positive way to deal with my grief as i never have before so i'm going to try my own fundraiser for my family.
I find it too difficult to visit their graves- my mum died 5 days before christmas and she never told the family she was dying so all her presents were set up ready to open so i kind of want to give a present finally to her in my own way as she never got hers.
I haven't really been to their graves since the funerals but I want it to change this year.
They are buried next to each other and also there's a bench and a lovely tree where they are both resting and i'd love to be able to decorate it all properly for christmas this year. I've looked at grave decorations and plaques and everything is so expensive even a lantern is over £500 so i'm asking my friends kindly even if they'd share this post or if they were going to get me a christmas present this year to donate anything they can to this page so I can put the money into something that will be really special to me, i'm not expecting much at all and I will put the remainder in. If you can't donate please could you share this and hopefully I can make this come true this christmas :-) thank you!
