My story

 

Hello,

This is Sadie again , I am pleased to tell you all that I completed the BUPA Great North Run  , not in a record breaking time , but I never stopped and I ran all the way , my finishing time was 2 hours and 26 minutes.

 

It was a truly wonderful experience and I met some lovely people over the weekend. For a moment while waiting for the race to start ,  I thought how  surreal it was  to think that 2 years ago I was walking with the use of a stick and now I was about to start the half marathon Great North Run.

 

With your very kind generosity I have managed to raise so far over £7000 for Leukaemia Research with more donations still coming in ,  and I thank you all again from the  bottom of my heart.

 

Thought for the Day

 

Never worry about tomorrow

Or shed tears for yesterday

TODAY…… is all that matters.


My name is Sadie , I am 38 years old , I am a wife and mother of two small children. Two years ago I was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia, I have under gone two years of intensive treatment. With the help and support of the medical staff at the  University Hospital in Coventry and Rugby and my family and friends, I managed to survive.
I am now in remission , and live each and every day to the full. Having secured a place to represent The Leukaemia  Research Fund , I am taking part in “The BUPA Great North Run “ Please Please  help me to fund research which will help to eradicate all types of Leukaemia for people  in the future – ordinary people like me and you.

Thankyou for visiting my fund raising webpage , donating through this website is simple , fast and totally secure.It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me. Leukaemia Research will receive your money faster and if you are UK tax payer an extra 28% tax will be added to your gift at no cost to yourself. So please do dig deep and help me to reach my fund raising target for this very special cause.
