Decs Rolling bucket list

Donation protected
Hello, My name is Declan. so seventeen years ago i was diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy which over the years it took my ablity firstly to walk so ive been fully depandnent on a wheelchair for 13 years, at first it was quite easy becuse i still had upper strenth but over the years ive become were i cant even lift my arms up without help and i always cant be left alone as i need help with every day activitys. this has took its toll on my mental health so i get worried about going and spent alot of time on my own in my bedroom. but something has changed, on the 16th on may i was told i have hopfully 6 months to live, this is because i had sepsis which has givien me kidney failure so i cant have the heart medicastion what increases Life expectancy. So because of this infomation ive been given It has given my the KICK UP THE ARSE to go out and Live my Life to the Fullest! so ive decided to make a Bucket list! as i want to make this the greastest last year of my Life! Unfortunately because of my condition I am unable to work as I need a lot of care, despite wanting to do volunteering even that is too difficult for me to do and find so I don't have very much disposable income to make my bucket list a reality. I've set up this gofundme so hopefully I can get the funds to make my dreams come to fruition and for people to be able to follow my journey to see all by adventures and wishes come true! so im a huge petrol head and have a van which is my pride and joy, ive done a couple of mods but i want this to be the best van ever to take to events to show disabled people can have awesome rides too and raise awareness of my condition and raise funds for Loros hospice the process. In the future as well, my mum is going to turn it into a campervan and take it on travels. I have always wanted to go to Paris and go to the Eiffel Tower, visit the Louvre, eat at authentic Parisian restaurant café and take in the culture of the city. Also, visit Disneyland add stay at the marvel hotel, you've got to let the kid inside out haha Once I have the best van ever I have always wanted to go around the Nurburgring racetrack in Germany, as Covid happened, I didn't get the chance to be able to do this wish. years ago while on a holiday I went out in the kayak and in the distance I saw somebody flying around a mountain in microlight and I remember thinking how amazing of an experience that would be, but I was too scared to look into it but after having this news I decided, as it's something I wanted to do I need to go out and do it and face my fear. To go to the goodwood revival is another thing that I would like to tick of my list.I will have more to put on my bucket list but as I only got this information about my prognosis a a week ago, I haven't thought of any more, but I will have a lot more I want to do.
