For others to not have to suffer, as I have in the future.
So, in summer of 2016, I was diagnosed with Advanced Breast Cancer. I am here today, not quite whole, having had a mastectomy, which followed months of chemotherapy. I am grateful to be alive, but the chemo has long lasting side effects, that will take years to recover from and I am still recovering. I rely on family and friends and can only walk, be on my feet for about 30 - 45 minutes at a time. I'd like to raise money for research into kinder forms of cancer treatment. Luckily riding is a seated sport and my equine partner is a calm type, who has looked after me perfectly. I can't do the race for life, but we can do the Ride for life.
