To Die For....

Today I was sent this email.

Dear All,If I can borrow 2 minutes of your time and then ask you to forward this on to anyone who might be interested I'd be enormously grateful. Most importantly of all, I'm not after any money, just 2 minutes of time.Some of you may know that my younger brother, Oli, suffers from Cystic Fibrosis. This is a degenerative disease, which starts to go downhill particularly when sufferers reach their twenties. Oli's now 23. Last year he was given a life expectancy of 2 years by his doctor. The only thing that can extend that is a double lung transplant.I'm not going to go into detail, or harp on and spout rubbish. In 3 weeks I'm running the London Marathon. I don't want any sponsorship, or any cash. The idea is to promote National Donor Register - to which, sadly, only 22% of Brits are signed up to. Instead of sponsoring me a quid or two, all I ask is that you take 2 minutes to go to http://www.uktransplant.org.uk and sign up to the register. Then just drop me an email at timlewington@hotmail.com so I've got a way of tracking how many responses we've had. Local businesses in Milton Keynes have offered £1 for every new person who signs up to the Register, all profits going to Cystic Fibrosis. 2 minutes is all it takes, then drop me an email and forward this one to anyone else. Most of us have the luxury of not thinking about death, but for so many others, it's just around the corner whilst millions of healthy organs are wasted each year because people are not signed up. Thanks so much for your time, Tim.
