Well, as many of you know now, not only did me, my youngest son, niece and nephew complete the 5 mile walk, big I've also added an extra challenge of doing a 280km (174mile) bike ride, flying into Bratislava on Sunday 24th May and starting this gruelling ride into Budapest over 5 days! Mad? YES! But unlike my brother and many others who didn't have a choice of getting this terrible disease, I do have a choice and it's with people like you that help me support my goal of achieving this, I can do it... No scrap that I WILL DO IT!

Morning all! 

I was thinking about more memories I have of Karl growing up, and I remember when I must have been 3 years old as it was in my old house in Cranswater, that my sister told me brother to put his finger in a plug switch in our house! Consequently, a hospital visit was taken as he got electrocuted! Don't worry, it wasn't serious! But n don't think he ever trusted her again after that! 😂

My brother was only 10 when he got ill with Acute Myloid Leukaemia, back in 1987. He succumbed to his illness after a year long battle and died 17th April 1988, age just 11 years old.

He never got to experience life bug in his short life he did have, I have some very happy memories with him and my sister! 

A fond memory I have of him was at bath time where use to have a bath together, and I remember his red radio playing and him getting out the bath dancing and flapping about in the breeze! 😂 He loved the song Camouflage!

Although it will be 38 years since he gained his wings, I still think of him often, especially through my boys who share his name and birthday! 

Thank you to those who donate to my page and even those who don't, but read about him.

Sorrel, Good luck with the charity cycle this half term! Remember: it’s all about endurance, determination… and finding excuses to stop for snacks every 12 minutes. Hope your legs survive, your tyres stay inflated and your saddle shows you some mercy
