Lois Leak's Forget Me Not Walk · 15 August 2015 ·

We're dedicated to beating blood cancer. We fund research and support those affected. Since 1960, we've invested over £500 million in blood cancer research, transforming treatments and saving lives. The day we beat blood cancer is now in sight and our researchers are determined to finish the job.

Story

Lois my Daughter-in-law unexpectedly passed away in July 2014 aged 27, following a four month battle following her diagnosis of Acute Myeloid Leukaemia. Few of us knew anything about leukaemia, which made it all the more difficult and challenging for us, and it was hard to understand the potential longer term outcomes for young people going through intensive treatment for blood cancers.

Such a cruel twist in what had seen Lois as an otherwise fit and healthy young lady with lots going on in her life left her family, friends and colleagues devastated. United together in our grief, we are now determined to turn this very sad loss into a positive action to ensure more people survive this terrible condition.

So many thanks for visiting all I need you to do now is give.
