Campaign idea: Katie is running the London Marathon
Katie's family faced broken sleep and constant alarms after Eddie's diagnosis. Now she is training for the London Marathon.
This story
Five years ago, Katie's son Eddie became seriously ill and was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. Managing the condition involves continuous glucose monitoring, an insulin pump and constant vigilance around the clock. Now that Eddie is nearly 13, Katie is organising local fundraising events in Guildford and preparing to run the London Marathon in 2027.
