Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
On Friday 14th June 2024, our incredible Mum was diagnosed with Oesophageal Cancer. Mum has undergone 4 rounds of extensive chemotherapy, a oesophagectomy and will have a further 4 rounds of chemotherapy in early 2025.
Since Mum’s diagnosis, she has shown such strength and bravery and continued to remain positive. She is a true inspiration and an amazing Mum, Wife, Mother in Law, Nana / Nanny and Sister and we are all so proud of her.
We (Fee, Dom, Jaimee, Laura and Matt) are running the Oxford Half Marathon on Sunday 12th October 2025, to raise money for the Oxfordshire Oesophageal and Stomach Organisation (OOSO). OOSO is a registered charity dedicated to supporting anyone affected by oesophageal or stomach cancer, and other serious upper gastrointestinal illnesses.
OOSO is run by volunteers who have first-hand experience of these cancers, and subsequent treatments such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery. OOSO provides friendly advice and sensitive support to patients and carers.
Donations will help to sustain the charity and support the Upper GI ward and Chemotherapy Suite at the Churchill Hospital in Oxford both of which Mum is receiving excellent care from.
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. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
This fundraiser is a way to show our gratitude and to help OOSO continue to support those affected by Oesophageal and Stomach Cancer.
Thank you for your support!
