Our son Daniel passed away suddenly aged 16, although not from a heart condition but a seizure.

3rd July 2016, Dorset I completed my first of five swims yesterday for “Five Swims in Five Countries for a Five Star Son” in Dorset. The weather was better than forecast with the sea temperature 13–14 degrees. As I was an award winner (the oldest lady in the 3.8 km) I was able to say a
