Mark<br />
Thomspon<br />
Leeds 37986<br />
Mark Thomson’s son Harry is now 6 but was diagnosed back in<br />
2006.<br />
When they first heard about the diagnosis the family were<br />
distraught. Their daughter Holly had been hit by a car on a zebra<br />
crossing 3 months before the diagnosis when the family were<br />
already emotionally fraught. They couldn’t believe they were<br />
back in hospital, this time with Harry.<br />
Holly is now 10 and has always been very protective of Harry.<br />
Harry has now gone back to school, luckily he hasn’t missed too<br />
much of school. He cant get involved with too many of the<br />
physical sports but has really immersed himself in school<br />
wherever he can.<br />
Mark was so grateful to CLIC Sargent who helped with the little<br />
every day things that make such a huge difference like doing the<br />
shopping, picking the children up from school, even ironing!<br />

Along with her friends and family, Rachel is running the VLM for<br />
her hen party as she is getting married a couple of months after<br />
the <strong>London</strong> <strong>Marathon</strong>. She ran last year in aid of Children with<br />
Leukaemia and so thought it would be the perfect opportunity<br />
for her friends to feel the sense of achievement that she did.<br />
Rachel has a nursing background and so far 15 of her friends and<br />
family have agreed to run with her. She is getting married to Neil<br />
on 28th May <strong>2010</strong>.<br />
