Hi friends, hope you are all ok.

Aswell as supporting NRAS i also as many of us do support ARC (arthritis research campaign) as well. I have recently received the winter 2010 edition magazine and just wanted to share with you (for those who do not receive the magazine) a wondeful story in memory of a man, father to four children called Clive Morris who sadly passed away two years ago from complications of RA and was just 50 years old.

After his death his wife Sally decided to do something to keep Clive's memory alive and has organised two memorial balls aswell as a London to Paris cycle ride with their two older children. So far the Morris family have raised £5,000 and have more fundraising events planned for this year.

I felt this was truly special and wanted to help keep the memory of Clive alive so thought i would share it with you my friends.

Love emilyXXX.

Hi Emily

I also can't post too often these day due to no computer of my own. However, I often think of you and wonder how you are so I'm very pleased to have see this post.

I also read the article in the ARC magazine and thought they were a very brave family.

Love - Brenda
