Jason Bowen MND diagnosis and me

[Brian]

Walesonline has done a good article on this today.

I spoke with their reporter Reem Ahmed, who contacted me via the appeal. I spoke over the phone over a few days and they sent a photographer over. I think she put it together well, although before it was published I was quite nervous about what angle she was going to put on it.

I texted her before publication threatening to haunt her, her descendants and their descendants for the next 3 weeks if she did a hit job (I stole that off the Simpsons).

Just caught up on this thread and read your story - a couple of things you said resonated with me (not the medical ones). I've just donated and hope you get to your total and it helps a small bit with the tough road you have ahead. Best wishes to your and your loved ones.

Yesterday was the best day of the summer so far for City fans, but, at the same time, 79blue was posting this;

"It seems that my appeal is now running out of steam after running for 7 weeks. I would just like to thank all the people who have donated to this appeal and those who have offered kind words of support.

Unfortunately I was not able to reach my target amount, although that was quite an optimistic target. Fortunately the funds that I have been able to collect will enable me now to have my bathroom rebuilt so that I can access a shower via a wheelchair, which will make my life so much easier. I have already selected a suitable contractor to carry out the rebuild and hopefully it will completed within the next 3 weeks.

I would again like to offer my thanks for all the support that I have received over that last few months. My thanks is not just for the monetary support but also for the lift it has given to my mental health."

I know it's not easy in the current economic climate, but it would be a great gesture if anyone on here could make another Bluebird feel a little better today with a donation.
