Michelle Bray is raising money for Cornwall Hospice Care
In memory of Sasha Watson
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
***SASHA*** our beautiful daughter, full of love, life & laughter. Diagnosed at 17, taken from us at 19. In those 2 years, our brave girl endured 3 major surgery resections, 1 on her liver & on each lung. Chemo-embolisation & 22 sessions of chemotherapy. But did she let it define her? Not a chance. Her courage, bravery & determination has been both humbling & inspiring. From the moment she stepped onto the 'cancer roller coaster', she held on & faced every turn & every dip with a strength I never would have thought possible. With every hi - she embraced life to the fullest.
Her last week was spent at St Julia's Hospice in Hayle. We couldn't have asked for more expertise & care. Sasha was kept pain free & cherished as if she were their own daughter. Chris & I were able to move in with her , so she was never alone, day or night & we were looked after too. Friends & family were welcomed at all times & the tea & cake trolley flowed. In beautiful, peaceful surroundings, Sasha was able to appreciate the quiet breeze in her hair, the birds & bees busy around the flowers & the gentle trickle of the waterfalls before turning to me & saying "I'm ready now mum". Without the hospice, it would have been so different.
All I am doing is 26.2 miles. Nothing in comparison but the money raised will make a difference to other families in Cornwall facing the worst time of their lives.
Please help me make a difference.
