Story

Thank you for supporting my fundraising. Macmillan gives people with cancer everything they have got. If you are diagnosed, your worries are Macmillan’s worries. Macmillan’s doing whatever it takes. But without your help, Macmillan can’t support everyone who needs them. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and secure. Your details are safe, JustGiving - they'll never sell them or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they will send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs.

Our Story - in 7 years Dad was unfortunately diagnosed with cancer 4 times. Prostate Cancer, Lymphoma Cancer, Skin Cancer and Bone Cancer. He successfully beat cancer three times but unfortunately back in March they discovered a tumour in his neck, after removing the tumour it was discovered that it had already spread to his bones, he underwent three major operations on his legs as his bones had got so weak and he pulled through them all as well as Radiotherapy but after a hard and long four months in hospital it was discovered that the cancer had spread too far and it unfortunately wasn’t treatable. He was placed on end of life care, we made the decision to fetch him back home to care for him as a family and three weeks later on Friday 28th July he sadly took his last breathe and passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his family.
