A Massive Thank You!

Quick note: As you all know I am working on a serious post for this here blog, but no matter what I edit I can't seem to get it right. I don't want it all to come out in the wrong way so you will have to bear with me. 

So, I am going to take this chance to thank you. You, the reader, the helper, the person who helped my dad on his way. 

Over the last few months I have been overwhelmed with the kindness that you have all shown my dad, I'm not even sure I have been that kind to him throughout my whole life (joke ! I am very kind to him...at least I am now, can't say I was when I was a teenager :p). I have had heartfelt messages through facebook, twitter and email, all of which have warmed my core and helped me in continuing the support on this end. 

Dad is in the process of sending me a list of people who have helped him (ie. given him a hot meal, let him stay in their house/hotel etc) and when I have that list I am going to make sure you get a standing ovation for your kindness. In any case, I am sure you are all reading this so you know who you are and what you have done. Please leave a message here telling us how you met dad, what you talked about and how you helped him on his way, I want everyone to know that the kindness of others really does go a long way.

I would also like to take this opportunity to let you know that Dad's online donations have reached a grand total (both sites together) of  £1833!!!! That is so amazing, well done Dad, and thank you to everyone who has donated online. Please continue to do so :D. You can find the giving sites on this blog as well as Facebook.

From the bottom of my heart (and dad's) THANK YOU! As a thank you, here is a picture of Dad competing in a Tough Guy challenge a few years ago ;)

P.S. Nearly forgot ! Dad weighed his bag again for you, it is now 7st 2lbs! Will have to ask how much weight HE has lost next time ;)!
