Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my fundrasing page 

Thyroid problems seem common, and therefore mostly thought of as trivial. But the thyroid is the gland that keeps every cell in the body ticking along nicely. When it goes wrong it can cause havoc, physically, mentally, emotionally.

After the birth of my daughter i. struggled for several years with tiredness, weight gain and at times  i was unable to regulate my boby temperature. On discovering a lump in my neck i visited my GP twice with my concerns. I had blood tests and was referred for a ultrasound. Blood tests and scan results showed i had thyroid disease and a mass growing in my thyroid. 2006 i was diagnosed with Papillary Thyroid cancer. After my RAI and full  removal of the thyroid i was able to get on with life. 2016 my Thyroid Cancer returned which resulted in a neck dissection and more radiotherpy treatment. 

My sister has been my running inspiration (love you TK) so Im running the VLM 2018 to raise awareness. This has been the biggest challenge I've ever undertaken please please if you can support in any way  then please donate via the link

Thank you xx ❤️
