Taking part in a physical challenge is not my sort of thing so I thought, – ‘what can I do that is not going to take up much of my precious time away from Taylan’s Project and also from being a mum to my beautiful children? I know! I can do a firewalk!’ All I have to do is turn up on the night, have 1 hours training beforehand and off I go onto red hot coals barefoot!

The date has been set for Saturday 17 November 2012 at 4.45pm at The Courtyard, Claydon House, Buckinghamshire MK18 2EX. Please come along and support me and the whole team who is taking part.

Some may think I am mental but this challenge does not compare to anything like losing a child. It has been 3 years since we lost our beautiful son Taylan and the fire burns continuously in my heart. The thought of not seeing him again, the thought of not hearing his voice ever again, the thought of not being able to touch him, see his smile or watch him grow up into the fine young man he would have become, has left me extremely bitter and angry.

He died because of a brain tumour, he died because of lack of funding and research, he died because there was no treatment and cure, and this has left me without a spark in my eyes and an empty soul.

I am not asking for much and I am truly grateful to each and every one of you who supports us personally and throughout the running of Taylan’s Project but if you can just spare just £2, it would be much appreciated. I am doing this to raise some funds but more awareness so I can make a difference and give hope to the thousands of people diagnosed with a brain tumour each year and their families.

So please, let people know about www.taylansproject.com , my challenge and why I am doing it, and help spread the word about this devastating illness that took my precious son away from me.
