Story

My Marathon for Mum

When my Mum passed away in December, I felt so incredibly sad, helpless and weak. Mum’s dying wish was to donate her body to research into Neurofibromatosis (NF) – the rare condition she was born with and one that my sister also inherited.

We tried every possible avenue to arrange Mum’s wish, but unfortunately due to COVID19 and the strict WA regulations at the time, body or tissue donations were not being accepted. :(

So, the next best thing I can do is fundraise for NF medical research and hope one day we can help my sister and others suffering this horrible condition.

After losing mum all I wanted to do was run! Run to clear my head, run to process my emotions and run because I am so grateful that my body can! And not everyone is lucky enough to be born with a body free from illness. So, since January I’ve been training hard to not only make my body stronger but also my mind! And on June 13th I’ll be tackling the Rottnest Marathon for Mum. 

It won’t be fast and it won’t be pretty but I will get through it – I figure, there’s nothing I can face in those 42km that is harder than the struggles my Mum faced all her life and the struggles my sister still faces daily.

So, if you would like to support my fundraising efforts, you can donate through this page and for more information on NF visit www.flickerofhope.org.au .

My target fundraising goal is $4,200 (because I'm running 42km) but I’d appreciate any contribution, big or small.

Donations made through this platform are secure and will be remitted directly through to 'Flicker of Hope' where 100% of all donations will go towards medical research into Neurofibromatosis. 

With my deepest gratitude,

Erin x

Flicker of Hope Foundation Limited

The Flicker of Hope Foundation was inspired by Zoe – who was diagnosed with NF at four months of age. 
 
Zoe loves to dream big … and she dreams of a bright future for all those affected by NF. In 2018 Zoe and her family established Flicker of Hope to raise much needed funds to support researchers in their quest to find positive treatments and improve the quality of life for those impacted by NF. 


Thanks to the generous support of individuals, businesses, community and school groups Flicker of Hope has raised over $2.5 million in five years. 100% of this amount has been donated to fund essential research into NF.
 
Please join us on this journey – a journey that may be life changing for those impacted by NF.
