Hi Guys,
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I'd love to raise as much money as possible for Brain Tumour UK by doing a 10,000 ft free fall Skydive. I know what you're thinking, is she crazy?! That I may be, but it's for such a good cause! I want to help the charity so they can support more people like my Mum. It's also a huge personal challenge to face my fear of heights and only two days before my 21st birthday!
In July 2004 my mum was diagnosed with advanced bowel cancer. Following surgery and chemotherapy she's had an amazing 5 years of life changing experiences.
In June 2009 the cancer returned as tumours in her lungs and a large brain tumour. The tumour in her brain has been successfully removed and she is now receiving palliative care due to the treatment on the lungs being un successful. My Mother is my true inspiration in many ways. She raised £5,600 by trekking to Machu Picchu in Peru for Beating Bowel Cancer in May last year. The trip was more amazing than she anticipated as unknown to us all she did it with brain and lung tumours and lung emboli (clots). Now it's my turn to do some fundraising!
Brain Tumour UK is the leading, caring charity committed to fighting brain tumours by providing support, funding research and raising awareness. www.braintumouruk.org.uk
So please help me to help them to raise as much cash as possible... dig deep people!
Thank you all very much for your support.
Amie x
