    Morning guys and girls

    Yesterday, I received a message from a lady who I have helped. For those that do not know, Grace is 7 years old, she is QPR mad (as is her family) and has been a mascot a quite a few games. She had a life changing operation in June which was only available in America after funds were raised to send her and her family out there. QPR FC made many donation and allowed the family to have collection buckets at various games.

    Grace had to have an operation to straighten her legs, and she then had to have a subsequent one 2 weeks after to lengthen the muscle and tissue in her heel.

    Now bear in mind we are in November, and she only had the op in the summer, I recieved an email from her mum saying tha Grace had walked for 2 miles in the Devon Hills.

    I was searching around for jobs when the email hit my inbox, and generally feeling pretty damn sorry for myself......read the email and it really made my day.

    Just wanted to share this..
