Some of you may know me some may not, but in the past 4 weeks my little sister was born 24 weeks premature and had to be transfered to Luton hospital to been taken care of, as you can think 24 weeks early she was so tiny, it cost £1500 aday to care for my sister Lilly in the NICU unit at Luton,

Im running the half marathon for my sister to raise money for the unit to help carry on looking after my sister and other in the unit,

Your support would help so much,

Im running 13miles round the silverstone track (Details are on my page)

i'll sponsor you £5 per mile how does that sound, is it ok to give it to u closer to the time?

lorrainecallison

Those pictures are beautiful.

I worked as a sister in neonatal intensive care for 16 years and I still go 'ahhh' when I see pics like that.

Very tough time for all of you tho, one day up, the next day down - but sounds like she is doing very well. I'm sure the staff are excellent, and of course I don't know Lilly's story, but any questions about what goes on............please ask me

No problem I certainly don't profess to be any more knowledgeable than the staff who are looking after Lilly but we all need an interpreter sometimes!

I'm not from Essex, but I live in Luton and our second kid was born quite early. He was in the same unit for a couple of weeks. Hope all goes well, donated to your account
