Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p><a href="http://challengecancer.org.uk/dambuster-details.php">http://challengecancer.org.uk/dambuster-details.php</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.challengecancer.org.uk/">http://www.challengecancer.org.uk/</a></p> <p>For full details of my story I would be houred for you to read my blog a summary of which is below:</p> <p><a href="http://tonysonghurst.blogspot.com/">http://tonysonghurst.blogspot.com/</a></p> <p>In Dec 2009 I was diagnosed with Stage 3 Bowel Cancer which had infiltrated a number of lymph nodes. Surgery was performed to remove the cancer and lymph nodes and unfortunately the chemo was stopped after 4 days due to an allergic reaction.</p> <p>In Oct 2010 secondary metastases were discovered - a single tumour in my liver and cancerous 'hotspots' in my para-aortic lymph nodes and my pelvis. I was told the cancer that had returned was inoperable.</p> <p>In Jan 2012 the cancer returned to the original bowel cancer site as well as the secondarys.</p> <p>I was given a leaflet for Challenge Cancer Through Adventure over a year ago as friends of mine thought I deserved some fun. I finally started looking at what I wanted to do as an Adventure. Within the site there was a link for The 2012 Derwent Dambuster 10-mile Challenge, this is what I have decided to take part in as my challenge whilst raising funds for CCTA:</p> <p><a href="http://challengecancer.org.uk/dambuster-details.php">http://challengecancer.org.uk/dambuster-details.php</a></p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
