I'm raising funds for people with dementia!
My beautiful mum was diagnosed with a rare form of dementia in 2017, primary progressive aphasia. Despite this isolating and incredibly cruel disease, she continues to be the most inspiring, kind, compassionate and resilient person I know. As a first time mum with a 10 month old, I am reminded everyday how special the bond is with your mum - it’s forever and there is no one like them. I am challenging myself to run 10km at the Rottnest Running Festival (with my mum cheering me on of course!), to raise money for dementia.I know my mum would encourage me to always help others and to be kind - so I hope this can also contribute to other individuals and loved ones, also navigating this challenging journey.
