IN MEMORY OF OUR DARLING EMMA BRIGHT X

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

On the 14th November 08   We tragically and so so sadly lost my darling  20 year old little sister Emma she had had a seizure. Im also doing this dive in memory of her xx

On the 7th of February 09 I was taken to hospital with severe abdominal pains. They found I had an infection I was then scanned and they found a large cyst.

On the 8th February I had an emergency major op to remove cyst.

9th February cyst, both ovaries and tubes removed ……… I was told they had found cancer ( those words will never leave me) in one ovary so had to remove both of them.i

I then had to wait 5 days for what they removed to be analysed.

 On the 14th febraury I was told results of other ovary etc were clear and cancer had not spread to the other ovary.

21st April I had a full hysterectomy and removal of appendix lymph glands Biopsies were done on all that they removed. Then I had a 12 day wait for results to see if cancer was found anywhere else.

Luckily i was ok and now have bloods done every three months to check up on me.

I would like to say a great big thank you to ..Debbie Fitzgerald, Mr Ranjet and Mr Athchenson how without them my journey could have been alot different.

I Although some say ive been unlucky i dont feel that way i feel lucky to have beaten cancer and desperatley want to give something back.

Because im frightened of heights it made sense to do a skydive !!!!!!!!!! helpppp

So please dig deep and donate now.
