Edinburgh Half Marathon 2018 · 27 May 2018 ·
In August last year my wife, Jennifer, found she had breast cancer, one month before our daughter Fiona's wedding.
Jennifer not only showed extreme bravery and courage in carrying this secret before the wedding to make sure that Fiona, her husband Andy and both families had the day to remember they wanted but also until Fiona and Andy came back from their honeymoon in the middle of September.
Jennifer is now recovering after an operation to remove the tumour and 3 lymph nodes followed by four weeks of radiotherapy which she finished in December. Fiona and I are running the Edinburgh Half Marathon in May this year to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support who were of great comfort and help to Jennifer during the time she spent at the Breast Cancer Unit at the Western General Hospital in Edinburgh and during the operation and treatment she went through.
If you can help Fiona and I reach our fundraising target by making a donation on this JustGiving page we would be extremely grateful as we would like to give something back to Macmillan Cancer Support for the help which they and the Breast Cancer Unit at the Western General Hospital gave to Jennifer.
Thank you in advance for your help with this.
