David's nomination story

my grandad always helps everybody else eventhough he is 72. he also just cycled 1000 km to help raise awareness of my medical conditionI hope to raise awareness of my granddaughter's medical condition NF (neurofibromatosis). There is no government funding for research and there are few specialists in this condition in this country. I have already done sponsored cycle rides but to carry the Olympic Flame to make people aware would be fantastic. Little Nicole is a fantastic little kid and deserves help. She is known as smiler at school as she is always so happy in spite of her handicap whereas I smile because I haven't a clue what is going on! It would help so many unfortunate people if some research could be done to find a cure or at least something to alleviate the pain. I am not used to being in the limelight but would be willing to make an exception in this case.
