Story
Three years ago I was diagnosed with a brain tumour and my life turned upside down for a while. I have powered through hideous treatments and horrid side effects thanks in part to the power of tea and cake. Now I am fundraising in The Big Bake to support the search for kinder treatments and certain cures. Please pledge the price of your elevensies or join my cake based activities.
Here’s some of my journey in numbers…
5 hours of brain surgery
10 days in hospital
33 rounds of radiotherapy plus 10 more this year
12 rounds of chemotherapy plus 2 more this year
2 stone of steroid weight gained, 2 stone now lost!
2 months in a wheelchair, 2 months walking with a stick, loads of frustrating days suffering double vision, poor balance and fatigued
Uncounted hours of clinical care and kindness from The Guys Neuro-oncology team, visits from fab friends and family and kisses from nurse Twiggy our Cavapoo.
One positive attitude to push on through…
Please support this cause. Money isn't everything but your donations mean a lot to me and can help make a difference. Thank you
