Wow!
Keep at it Marie your doing a amazing job! (I should know, I learned to ski via the adaptive pathway and now volunteer for an adaptive club!)
Hi Marie. I'm Vinnie from the Highlands and met you and Mike a few months ago at Chill Factore. we were talking about the Andorra trip. I love your steely determination and your no nonsense attitude. This video touched my soul with the love and partnership that you and Mike have for and with each other. Wishing you both all the best for the future and may your journeys to Chill Factore and back be as hassle free as possible... I have to give a shout out to John for his guidance and aiding your belief in your abilities. Blessings and best wishes to both of you. I love
Marie, you are quite simply amazing! Every best wishes with your skiing and continue to tackle life head on. Ian L.
Wow Marie, so proud of you and what a great mentor you have had in John on your incredible journey.
John does love his Garlands! Excellent video. Walking is just an over-rated past time and wheels are brilliant, so is John Lawson!
"Nothing is impossible with DSUK" -- spot on!
Go, Colin and Emily! Fantastic to see you guys having such fun on the slopes! And a major thumbs up to your instructor, too! Just exceptional work from all of you. Well done, DSUK.

This woman has no credibility at all. Gold digger; self centered. Yes she is all that. Good person? No.
James Dunn You are a mean person.
Just stating the evidence.
Had great experience helping these guys, carry on the good work!
