In my own words...

The work done by the Smile Foundation is close to me – as a baby one of my sons was a patient at the Johannesburg General Hospital’s Craniofacial Clinic, and although he didn’t need surgery, as a family we were exposed to the fear of the unknown and the implications of facial disfigurement in children.

The run starts in the South of Germany, each day running over mountain after mountain, through Austria and Switzerland, ending in a village in the North of Italy. The total ascent will be 14 000m (that’s 14km!) and I know I will have a big smile on my face at the top of each mountain – something to share with each new smile that emerges from the SMILE WEEK operating theaters!

In Jane's Own Words (By SMS this morning)

Hi All

I received this SMS from Jane and Karen this morning and they have asked me to post it on the blog and once again thank everyone for the wishes and the support. Please remember that you can post your comments on this blog or email me at saidwhat@yahoo.com and I will ensure the messages reach them.

Looking forward to further news and a few pics later.

Regards Mike
