Today we held a Charity Waterfront Walk for my husband who is battling Motor Neurone Disease (or Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis / Lou Gherigs Disease).

Andrew was diagnosed in September 2010 and has since made 2 trips to China for experimental Stem Cell treatment.

We are hoping to raise some funds for a further treatment to slow or reverse the latest symptoms affecting his eating and breathing.

The result was fantastic, a great day out with perfect weather and I hope everyone enjoyed themselves on this break from the recent horrible weather we've had.

I really wanted to get a photo of Lucy on the walk, but I couldn't catch up to her with her walking partner due to so many chats along the way!

I was worried that my girl might freak out with so many people, especially loads of children on scooters that she normally barks at, but she was on her best behaviour and even let some children give her pats and cuddles!

Leo on the other hand, was the complete opposite. He drove my dad nuts with his constant growling and barking at people and other dogs. He had a go at Chelsea at one stage, Chelsea being the most gentle and submissive dogs on earth - I don't know what his problem was. I don't like to tie up Dogs but I had to banish Leo from the BBQ area as he was lunging at people and dogs and coming from such a large dog, I'd hate for people to end up being scared of him from this episode. Time for some more training I think.

I am grateful for having so many wonderful family and friends who support us in our arduous journey.

Pictured left is Lucy's new friend Chelsea!

Still a little bit to go when I get my Eraser Pencil... There's a little bit of highlight fine tuning I need to do!
