Cancer sucks, so let’s kick it’s butt by raising money, and finding ways to beat it!
In memory of
Nana Pam
My Story
Like many people, I lost someone who meant the world to me, all because of cancer. Losing my nan was, and still is, the hardest experience of my life thus far. She was never destined to be taken so soon from us, a beautiful woman who I truly believe had so much more to give. 6 years ago, she lost her battle, and actually passed away the day before my mum, aunty & I ran the 5k race - it was an emotional experience, but one I think of fondly. This many years later, I’ve still not accepted losing her, and neither have my family. However, the chances of surviving this evil disease has increased dramatically, and I believe that’s all due to public funding! More money raised = more lives saved. So pass me your pennies, and I’ll run like a crazy woman to help save more lives, more people we love, and remember those who we lost, and now watch down upon us. This is for you nan. This is for everyone.
