My Story
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. This January, I’m taking on Dryathlon and going booze-free for one month to raise money for Cancer Research UK. Every penny makes a huge difference to vital cancer research so please show your support with a donation to my page. My Dad was diagnosed September 2017. Prior to this, I had never heard of Myeloma. Our family had learnt so much about this form cancer and as yet there is no cure. The treatments he has received over the last 2 years to improve his condition has only been possible through constant research & the care he has received from all NHS staff that we have met along the way in The Beatson, Queen Elizabeth & Forth Valley. Without this we maybe in a very different situation. For this we are very thankful, even though the journey to this point has not always been easy. A special mention to the best nurse in the world...my mum. Also the support we have had from family & friends. This is for you Dad❤️
