Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
In 2013, Suzanne Bailey-Cartridge was diagnosed with Stage 3, Grade 3 breast Cancer and underwent a right sided mastectomy and Lymph node clearance, which has now resulted in Lymphedema in her right arm.
With the cancer being very aggressive, Suzanne had to wait over two years for DIEP reconstruction at the end of 2015, which involved moving skin and fat from the tummy and creating a new breast form. Then a further operation in 2016.
Bury Cancer support have been there from the minute I was diagnosed and their door is still open to me today for any support I may need. They received no funding and rely solely on fundraising.
“I had done some running before the Cancer, having entered the Great Manchester Run for 5 years leading up to Cancer and entered a marathon in 2012. After treatment, my fitness was at an all-time low and felt I couldn’t get back into running”
“Great Run Local Burrs Country Park has really helped me to keep exercising, even on my bad days as I can do as much or as little as I want, still feel a part of something and still feel like I’m keeping on top of my fitness.
