Thank you for visiting my Race for Life fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online as my sisters-in-law Jill & Kath, my neice Judy & I will be walking at the Racecourse on Sunday as a 'Thank You' to Cancer Research UK .
Events like Race for Life are an important way in which Cancer Research UK is able to fund its life-saving work into preventing, diagnosing and treating cancer. By sponsoring me now you could help more people survive cancer.
My sister-in-law Kath has been through Chemotherapy & Radiation treatment for the last year. She will be on Tamoxifen for the next 5 years, this drug was discovered by Cancer Research UK and is for the treatment of oestrogen driven breast cancer. Her cancer presented itself as a flattened area where she would get shooting pains when driving. There was no obvious lump, so her doctor refered her to Cheltenham General for tests as a precaution and the specialist found the cancer using ultra sound. Kath has returned to work Walls Icecream in Gloucester and is gradually building up her hours and hopes to resume her proper shift pattern after Christmas.
My cousin Roland has bowel cancer. He had a major operation and started chemotherapy treatment but he suffered a set back so the chemo had to be stopped...
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me - Cancer Research UK 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.
So please sponsor me now!
Many thanks for your support.
