<p style="margin-right: 0cm; margin-left: 0cm; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000;">Back in June 2010 I was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia. In November 2010 I had a successful stem cell transplant from my sister which continues to keep my bone marrow and blood in remission. Unfortunately, in Feburary 2012 I relapsed as a tumour made up of Leukaemic cells was discovered in my chest.</span></p>
<p style="margin-right: 0cm; margin-left: 0cm; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">This time </span><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">I was fortunate enough to benefit from a new chemotherapy drug called Nelarabine, which specifically targets T-cell Leukaemia, the type that I have. It is thanks to charities like Leukaemia and Lymphoma Research that new drugs are created, and treatment for blood cancers continues to improve.</span></span></p>
<p style="margin-right: 0cm; margin-left: 0cm; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #000000;">I am once again back on the road to recovery, and like last year I will be taking part in the Leukaemia and Lymphoma Research London Bikeathon. Last year I completed the 52 mile course, and this year I aim to complete <strong>75 miles</strong> around the Olympic Cycle course. This is definitely much more of a challenge for me, especially as I have much less time to train once my treatment finishes, but one I will approach with my full commitment. </span></p>
