We were contacted by our supporter Jenny Lupton who’s mother Joan is confined to a wheelchair after suffering a brain tumor 9 years ago. She registered for the VHI Womens Mini Marathon. Jenny pushed her along the way and Joan walked the last 100 metres across the line with help. What a remarkable woman, such an inspiration! We are all so very proud of her.
