Story

So, one of our closest friend and family member has been diagnosed with terminal cancer after being told she was given the all clear at the start of July 2020 from Ewing's Sarcoma. Megan has pushed through this with an immense amount of strength and courage, so Megan, her family and her friends have decided they would like to raise money for Sarcoma UK by completing a Sky Dive at 15,000ft in her honor. Sarcoma UK is a national charity that funds vital research, offers support for anyone affected by sarcoma cancer and campaigns for better treatments. Sarcoma is a type of cancer that develops in the bone and soft tissue. It is difficult diagnose and one of the hardest to treat. This is Megan's story and message to everyone: 

"As everyone knows around 5 months ago I got the amazing news of getting the all clear! And honestly, I was absolutely buzzing and so grateful to get that second chance at life! Unfortunately, on 21st October I found out I have relapsed as they have found two new tumour's making it terminal cancer and because of a late relapse they don't believe I have long left here which is the most heartbreaking news for myself, my family and my friends. I am writing this to make people realise how anything can happen tomorrow and your life isn't promised. Please never go to sleep in a mood with someone and do absolutely WHATEVER makes you happy because life is short. As a 19 year old lass I shouldn't have to be able to plan my own funeral or not be able to get married and much, much more what you think you will do in life! I'm SO grateful to spend my last memories with the most amazing people in my life and they have been the most supportive and caring people that have never left myside and I know they will stay with me till the very end. Please do what you want in life that will make you happy and don't take any bullsh*t from people that put you down for doing so! All the love in the world to the people who are by my side right now!" 

By supporting us, Sarcoma UK can help change this. Your donation will help researchers find answers, keep their Support Line open, and raise awareness to improve treatment and standards of care for others like Megan. All donations will be gratefully accepted. Thank you for your support.
