    Iʼve raised £325 to Support a family who have been through childhood cancer

    Kettering, United Kingdom
    Funded on Thursday, 1st March 2018

    Story

    Over the past couple of weeks I have noticed the cancer research campaign for sugar free February and it has got me thinking about my own need to cut out refined sugar (broken sleep with a toddler, lack of sunshine and time for myself has resulted in me not feeling my best and nutrition is the one part of my life I can control).

    I needed a reason bigger than just doing it for me if I was going to be sucessful and I thought about raising money for a local cause. Whilst at a conference at the weekend I met a friend of a friend who is having a very diffiult time as her son was diagnosed with cancer in Nov last year. Whilst he is now making great progress, they are now dealing with the after math and the affect it has had on the whole family, including their 7 yo daughter. It really touched my heart as I cannot imagine a greater pain than watching my child suffering. Whilst praying with this lady, I felt the desire to do something to help and I thought how it would be lovely for them to have something to look forward to - somewhere they could go together as a family and just have some fun and be a normal family again. I thought back to the cancer research campaign and thought this would be a great reason to go sugar free this Feb but help a family directly!

    So, this is where you come in. I realise things are tight for some poeple and that there are always people fundraising for something. However, Please, please would you support me in raising some money for this family and in return I pledge to cut out refined sugar for the month of February. Every little will help and it will go some way to showing this family that they are not alone in their struggles and give the children reasons to smile again!

    Thanks for reading this far and please help me strengthen my willpower by donating and keep me going the next 28 days!

      Thanks so much to those of you who have donated so far. Although it's only day 3 officially, I've been off the white stuff for 10 days now and I have to say I feel much better for it! Anyone else who can help out with this cause, please help me to meet (or better still surpass) my target and bring a little bit of joy amidst a storm for this family.
