We care for people with terminal illnesses to give them the choice to die at home

Story

As many of you know I was diagnosed in 2001 with a slow growing cancer called Carcinoid Syndrome which I describe as treatable but not curable and over the years I have actually become fitter and healthier than I have been for a long time by using both conventional treatments, lifestyle choices and complementary therapies. Ironically this weekend will also be my eight year anniversary of diagnosis.

When I heard Herriot Hospice Homecare were doing this walk, I wanted to do it, as this small local charity helped us out as a family when we were at a very low point, it's also may be a service I may need in the future so I'd like to help while I can.

Nathan is doing the walk with me, I'm not sure who'll end up holding who up but we'll keep each other going. Please help out if you can.
