Lee Gillespie fundraising for Breast Cancer Ireland in Run 62K in January as part of The gillespie’s

Thanks so much for visiting our self explanatory page.🤦🏻‍♂️ massive thanks to all who have helped out this year with my kids and with Michelle, such a life changing year for us all, and tbh a different look at life in general, to start living, and appreciate what we have. The term “life’s too short” is thrown around and most of us just say it at random, but tbh it actually is, one min your happy out, the next something like this comes along and knocks you for six. My Michelle has been through the mill, but thankfully she has been nothing short of a complete an utter warrior💪🏻, she has gone through hell, and now she’s on the way back, my kids have gone through hell, and also are doing great the past few months. Better days ahead and the rest of her life to live, so proud of my kids mam, she deserves all the credit under the sun 🥰here’s to the rest of our days as a complete family 🙌🏻 Just want to try give a little donation back as a thanks for all the help in treating Michelle.
