Missus Woz and 2 of her sisters are running their legs off training for the London Marathon. They are running for Tommys, the stillborn and preterm charity. I'm also doing the London Triathlon which if any of you have met me will make your jaws hit the floor.
It's a charity close to our hearts as in 2000 we lost a baby girl, Tallulah, 6 weeks before she was due. Tests showed no reason for it- she simply died in utero. The hardest thing I've ever had to go through and the saddest moment in my life was lowering her little coffin into her grave.
Missus Woz's sister Rachel had a premature baby, Oscar who was 7 weeks early and was very ill but is now a fighting fit healthy 4 year old and great fun to be around.
Her other sister Beccy is a midwife and deals on a daily basis with stillbirths and prem babies.
So give what you can- the more the better but whatever you can afford. There's a webpage set up at:

so the only thing to have to lift is a finger.
Thanks.
Woz.
PS- The photo on the website is taken at Tallulah's grave. Missus Woz (Sarah) is on the left, Beccy in the middle and Rachel on the right. How the hell the spaniel got into the picture I have no idea. And looking closer that's a bit of Bull Terrier on the left too. Jeeez.
PPS- apologies to the admins but I'll be bumping this post regularly until the event and probably a little after too.
