A walk for Bud


On Sunday Sept 21st my beautiful children took part in a sponsered memory walk to raise money for Alzheimers Scotland. We walked in memory of our beloved Bud, Murray's Grandad. We lost him in January of this year. He was trully one of lifes special people. He was a true gentleman. Fraser had a very special bond with him and actually gave him his very special name, Bud. We miss him so much and talk about him almost everyday. He was affected by alzheimers for around 2 years but on hindsight his memory had been failing for a lot longer. The upside to his illness was that Christine (my MIL) was very involved in his day to day care and as a result we all got to spend a lot of time with him, precious time that we may have wasted had he been 100% fit.

Sunday was an emotional day for us all but was worth every step that those special kids took. I am so proud of them and their acheivement.


This one's for you Bud
