My story

 
Thank you for visiting my site.

In August 2007, the day after her 20th birthday, my daughter Melissa was diagnosed with Non Hodgkins Lymphoma.  Sadly, Mel was one of the unlucky ones and in the early hours of May 11 2008 she passed away.  Mel showed amazing courage during her battle with Lymphoma and she continues to be an inspiration to many people, not just in the UK, but across the world. 

In June 2009 I will be cycling from London to Paris, raising money for the Lymphoma Association in memory of our wonderful and remarkable daughter.  I've never done anything like this before, but I am hoping that by taking part in this cycle ride, I will not only raise funds for the Lymphoma Association, but also raise awareness of Lymphoma itself.

Please help me reach my target and donate to this wonderful cause.

Thank you for visitng my site and for all the donations received.
