My story

 

On the 22nd July 2008 I was diagnosed with Acute Myloed Leukeamea at The University Hospital of North Staffordshire. This was a huge shock to both myself, my family & my friends especially as I was a fairly fit & active person.

From that day I was an inpatient on Ward 117 (Haematology Department, where I received 1st class treatment by all concerned, the Consultants, Doctors & Nurses where not only very knowledgable in the field, but they were also very friendly & considerate to not only my illness & state of health but they became part of an extended family of friends, which was very important in the varying stages of my recovery.

While I was on the ward, it became apparent how much time & money was being spent on making the patients, some of which were not as lucky as myself & others which will never recover, feel at home & making their lives as comfortable as possible, even when it was apparent that the money wasnt readily available.

It is with this in mind that I have decided to do my part in helping the ward & everyone concerned within the ward, to carry on providing the service which I have been very fortunate to have received & by doing this, I am also saying a huge thankyou to them.

So with that in mind, & complete with a team of close friends (pictured), I am undertaking to complete the Three Peaks Challenge which involves walking the three major mountains in Wales (Snowdon), England (Scaffel Pike) & Scotland (Ben Nevis) within a 24hr period commencing on Friday 17th July 2009, which you will note is also around the 12month anniversary of my diagnosis.
