At just the age of 5, my big brother Adam was diagnosed with leukaemia. Great Ormond Street Hospital were the reason he managed to cope the unthinkable for three years! At the time, I was only two, and I still vaguely remember all  of the doctors’ appointments and tests he was forced to have. Furthermore, he was teased a bit by friends for losing his hair as he was only in reception and barely any of them  understood. However he remained strong and positive always and continued doing everything he loved- especially football! He even went to school every day! Whilst I am  running, I will also be thinking of my gorgeous Shazza. She is my grandma that I just lost in July. She was always kind and caring. But unfortunately she was defeated in the battle against cancer at just the age of sixty-nine. She will forever be remembered and loved by all.
