My target 100 kms
Losing a parent at any age is unimaginably hard. That coupled with watching them lose themselves and not being able to do anything about it is unbearable. This is unfortunately what my family has been going through for the last few years with my dad and so many families have been dealt the same card.
My worst nightmare ever since I was a child was always that one of my
parents will become victim to dementia. Never would I have thought it would
actually happen and unfortunately be one of the rarest kinds. Progressive
Supranucleur Palsy (PSP) is only of of many neurological conditions that affect
millions of people world wide. There is still no cure to any of these
conditions, no hope for families or any ease for people that fall victim to
them. My hope is that one day in the future, other families do not have to go
through the same torture that mine and so many others have, one day there might
be a cure or more understanding around what causes this and how to stop it
before it is too late.
So in light of this, I am
committed to running 100km every month this year for not just myself and my own
goals, but to shed light on the ruthless impacts of these conditions.
I would love if you could donate towards me running during the month of March. I'm raising hope for the Neurological Foundation of New Zealand; New Zealand's only dedicated funder of neurological research. As detailed in the Global Burden of Disease 2018 study, 1 in 3 people are now affected by a neurological condition - making what they do important to many Kiwis. They fund approximately $5 million worth of neurological research each year to further our understanding of the 700+ neurological conditions that exist. Their researchers work to develop prevention and treatment methods, and contribute to the progress for cures.
