Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Macmillan Cancer Support will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

My mother got diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer during 2006. Thankfully she's alive due to the best possible care in hospital and getting better all the time -- however the fear remains.

Then in September my best friend from early school days, Sonja, died of cancer. She got married only a year ago. They were building a family home and had plans for kids. And then... she died aged 30... THAT brings reality home -- it can happen to anyone at any age...

This is my challenge: hiking nearly 130km through ricefields and across (one) mountain in Cambodia for Macmillan and help raise money to help many more people to get the (financial & caring) support they and their families & friends need during that time. 

Please help me to achieve my target!  I don't care how much you give, just PLEASE do give something.

And to all those out there who know me - Sleeping in a tent?! Creepy crawlies?! No comforts of home?! ME???!!! What a joke!!!... and to top it all off, having a hole in the ground as toilet --whoopeedoo... see what I'm saying? - I'm a comfy-4*minimum-hotel-type-girl. It won't be a walk in the park or as some of of my friends called it: a holiday!

Thanks Chris for this note:"Macmillan were fantastic when my Mum's Mum suffered a slow and painful death from cancer of the bone marow. Due to Macmillan's help she was able to be at my mum's house until she died and not a hospice. My mum could not have handled that without their support."

PLEASE PLEASE SPONSOR ME!!!

Many thanks for your support - it means the world to me & Macmillan Cancer Support.

Claudia.

 P.S. if you don't want to sponsor on-line, please send a Cheque payable to MACMILLAN CANCER SUPPORT to me and I'll pay it in. E-mail me for my postal address claudia@muessig.orangehome.co.uk
