Hi Jo I’m sorry I’m slow to respond, I have been away. Thank you so much for your donation, that was so very kind of you. I’m so sorry our dates don’t match up, it would have been so amazing to meet you there. Brought tears to my eyes that you even wanted to, thank you.

Hi Emma, what an amazing thing you are doing to honour your dad and Hospice too. My mum passed away 27 January 2017 after an 8 week battle with melanoma. Hospice were truly outstanding. What date in September are you planning your swim? My husband and I are traveling to San Francisco on Sept 12th and would love to come and watch you knock this off if the dates line up. Take care.

Hi Jo, wow thank you so much for getting in touch. It really means so much! The swim will be Sunday morning 30 September, will you be there then? We would love to meet you there if you will still be there then?

I’m really sorry about your Mum, it’s a tough journey. I hope you are doing okay.
