Story

My Dad has just been diagnosed with this rare form of cancer possibly caused by years of breathing in the chemicals and dusts from farming.

He will be starting chemotherapy soon and there is not much I can do to physically help but I swim.

I have been supporting DiabetesUK research with my swimming and now I want to help raise funds for NEC research. Hopefully extra funds and raising the profile will help.

My Dad has been getting weaker this year, disappearing. He has always been strong and fit, there to support and look after our family, it's our turn now to look after him and this is how I can help. Please help by donating what you can. Set me challenges if you would like.

Hopefully money raised will benefit everyone affected by this disease.
