Ironman for Tuva
ÖVERSÄTTNING PÅ SVENSKA FÖLJER..
On the evening of 25th July 2018 the unthinkable happened. My brother-in-law's 14-year-old daughter, Tuva, took her horse for an evening ride near her home in southern Sweden. A short time into the ride she fell and tragically passed away.
This is a horrendous time for her family who are struggling to come to terms with what has happened. I want to try to salvage something positive from this tragic event and this is why I have set up this fundraiser in memory of this beautiful, talented, strong-willed and courageous young girl.
Min Stora Dag (My Special Day) is a Swedish non profit, Non governmental organization, granting wishes for Swedish children and teenagers 4-18 years old, with serious illnesses and diagnoses. The charity enables sick and terminally ill children to attend concerts, group activities and various other events that provide a much-needed distraction from their everyday struggles and challenges.
I shall compete in the Sweden Ironman on 18th August 2018 and want to do so in memory of Tuva. I see this as a good opportunity to raise awareness of this fantastic charity as well as collect donations on behalf of my beloved niece who has been taken far too early and who would have loved to have been involved with supporting such a great cause.
Please, if you can, make a small donation in Tuva's name. It will mean a great deal to her family and will be a most fitting tribute to a wonderful girl.
Den 25 juli 2018 hände det otänkbara. Min 14åriga brorsdotter Tuva avled i en mycket svår ridolycka.
Tuvas familj och alla som kände henne är helt förkrossade över det som hänt. Vi kan aldrig vrida tillbaka klockan men jag känner att något positivt måste komma från denna tragedi.
Jag ska tävla i Kalmar Ironman den 18 augusti 2018 och kommer göra så till minne av Tuva. Jag ser detta som ett tillfälle att uppmärksamma Min Stora Dag, en fantastisk organisation som skänker glädje och tröst åt så många. Samtidigt hoppas jag kunna samla in pengar i Tuvas namn. Hon togs ifrån oss alldeles för tidigt men hon skulle helhjärtat stöttat detta.
Om ni har möjlighet, skänk en gåva i Tuvas namn. Det skulle betyda oerhört mycket för hennes familj och vara en hyllning till denna underbara tjej.

ÖVERSÄTTNING PÅ SVENSKA FÖLJER
Dear All - Our darling Tuva’s funeral took place on Wednesday and we said our final farewells to the most wonderful daughter, sister, grand daughter, niece, cousin, class-mate and friend anyone could hope for.
Tuva’s family, Henrik, Pernilla, Isaac, Felix and Sebastian have been overwhelmed by your generosity and good wishes and thank you from the bottom of their broken hearts.
We have spoken with Min Stora Dag, and the 31,310 SEK which we have all raised will be dedicated to a horse-riding camp which be held at Söderåsens Forsgård in southern Sweden in the Summer of 2019. This camp will give a group of disabled and terminally ill children the chance to experience the joy of riding specially-trained Icelandic horses. This will provide them with an experience which will support them in their recovery or, in some cases, give some respite to their tragically short lives. It is hoped that Tuva’s family will visit the camp to see for themselves the legacy their wonderful daughter has left behind.
Tuva would be so proud to have been a part of such a great cause and we want you all to be proud of it too. Thank you.
Sleep easy precious Tuva. You will be with us all forever.
Kära vänner – I onsdags begravdes vår älskade Tuva och vi tog farväl av den mest underbara dotter, syster, barnbarn, bror/systerdotter, kusin, klasskamrat, och vän man kan ha.
Tuvas familj, Henrik, Penilla, Sebbe, Felix och Isaac är oerhört rörda och tacksamma över er generositet och fina meddelanden.
Vi har varit i kontakt med Min Stora Dag och de 31.310 kr som har samlats in kommer gå till ett ridläger på Söderåsens Forsgård nästa sommar. Detta lägret kommer ge svårt sjuka och handikappade barn möjligheten att uppeva glädjen av att rida och umgås med speciellt utbildade islandshästar. Det blir en upplevelse som kan hjälpa dem i sin återhämtning efter sjukdom eller olyckor, och ge glädje åt svårt sjuka barn. Tanken är att Tuvas familj ska hälsa på och själva få se arvet deras fantastiska flicka har lämnat efter sig.
Tuva hade varit stolt över att vara en del av en så god gärning och vi hoppas ni alla är lika solta. Stort tack.
Sov gott lilla Tuva. Du kommer finnas hos oss för alltid.

Well done Kev....a donation for a great cause.
Well, Ironman for Tuva took place yesterday and I managed to get to the finish line after a very emotional last 5 kms.
Total times:
3.8km swim 🏊♂️: 1hr 30 mins 🙂
180km bike 🚴🏼♂️: 6 hrs 1 min 😊
42km run 🏃🏻♂️: 5 hrs 42 mins 😕
total: 13 hrs 26 mins👍
It it was a very tough day but every km was done for our amazing Tuva who was with me every step.
Thanks so much to you all for your generosity and kindness. We have raised more than 27 000 sek which will help sick and terminally ill children to have some fun. All in Tuva’s name.
Lilla Tuva, jag hade förmånen att få träffa dig några gånger. Första gången jag träffade dig, plaskade du runt hemma i poolen med brorsan och var så glad och lekfull. Du finns i mitt minne. Tack för att jag fick träffa dig.
En ängel flög förbi, mot himlen så fin. Men hon lämnade kvar sitt leende på vår jord ❤️ Vi saknar Dig !
Well done Kev, great cause, amazing effort. Proud of you. Mum and Dad.
Heja heja på ironman!
