Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Lisa Wilson-Hargreaves, 22 years old lost her courageous fight on the 1st Aug 2005. Lisa the 'Pizza' had Acute Myloid Leukemia(AML) but never once did she ever give up, and showed true 'fight & spirit'.

Lisa is my daughter, sister of Hayley and Callum and the dog Rooney.

Since being diagnosed in April 2004 I looked after and cared for Lisa until the final moments of her life. If it was not for Hayley looking after Callum whilst in her first year at university, throughout Lisa being seriously ill I could not have dedicated all my time and energy to Lisa. It turned out to be a real team effort with everyone pulling in the right direction for the sake of Lisa, including Gary her husband and Laura Lisa's best friend who were there every step of the way. I am running the London Marathon again in memory of Lisa. Since Lisa was diagnosed this statement reflects how Lisa dealt with AML throughout the last 16 months of her life. I am so lucky to have had a daughter like Lisa she really is a true inspiration and when I get to 24 miles of the Marathon she will be shouting "COME ON DAD GET A MOVE ON YOU CAN DO IT!"
