<p><span style="color: #800080;"><em>Our Story:-</em></span></p>
<p><em><span style="color: #800080; font-family: Verdana;">I'm Kirsty, I have many reasons for entering the race, My Grandmother, who meant so very much to me, lost her life to lung cancer, it was aggressive and spread rapidly. She lost her fight on the 10th Feb 2008 surrounded by her family myself included. I miss her every day, she's left a huge gap in all our lives.</span></em></p>
<p><em><span style="color: #800080; font-family: Verdana;">Later in 2008 my very good friend Angela Low was diagnosed with cancer of the cervix only it had spread further in that just the cervix, she had a massive hysterectomy summer. Shortly after recovering from the surgery she found a lump in her breast. Tests showed she had cancerous lumps in both breasts and had a double mastectomy. She is fighting hard and has her final session of chemotherapy on the 1st April 2009. This will be followed by some radiotherapy on her right arm pit where they removed some cancerous lymph glands. Angela is doing amazingly well in her recovery and is still a huge part of our lives.<br /></span></em></p>
<p><em><span style="color: #800080; font-family: Verdana;">Her friendship knows no limits, even throughout her treatment she's been there for me when times have been hard at any hour of the day.</span></em></p>
