Story

I don't throw myself out of a plane for anyone, they have to be pretty special to get me to do something that stupid.

Patrick was diagnosed with germ cell cancer in May 2012 and following an intense but incredibly dignified battle he sadly died in March 2013 aged 48.

I feel blessed to have met, loved and married Patrick and so as a tribute to him I will be doing a tandem skydive on what would have been his 49th birthday.

I would like to raise money for It's In The Bag who support men who have been diagnosed with Testicular Cancer.  The aims of the charity are:-

Raising awareness

Raising money

Celebrating and supporting survival

Further information about the charity can be found at www.uhbristol.nhs.uk/itsinthebag

Patrick and I were overwhelmed by the care, support and determination we experienced at the Bristol Haematology & Oncology Centre so this event is not only a tribute to Patrick it is also a tribute to the fantastic team who looked after him and did everything they could for him.

Patrick was an incredible person who I know inspired so many of us so please donate what you can in his memory for a charity I know he would want us to support.

Thank you, Jo.x
