The Big C has affected my family for as long as I can remember.  It took my lovely mum from us when my brother and I were just 21...and six years prior to that took her younger sister.

Having a daughter myself now, I can't imagine (never want to imagine) the terror she would have gone through while she fought those final years. 

Those around me have been fighting the fight for years...sometimes winning (long may that continue) and sometimes sadly losing.

Time is a healer but nothing will take away the fact that my mum is not around to see her grandaughter.  I feel like I have missed out on so many years with a wonderful, kind beautiful lady and I ask you all to contribute to this worthy cause to help prevent others missing out on time with their loved ones too. xxxxxx
