My Story
Cancer is happening right now, which is why I'm taking part in a Race for Life 5k to raise money and save lives. 1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Every single pound you donate makes a difference to Cancer Research UK’s groundbreaking work, so please sponsor me now. I was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 1994 and hey ho- I’m still here !! It keeps coming back for another fight, and has even thrown leukaemia at me in 2017, but somehow I keep battling it off. I’m just about to embark on another round of chemo but I am lucky that so far I have managed to deal with it quite well 🤞🤞🤞. I’ve been doing the Race for Life each year since 2004 with my good friend June Newton who has always been a great support to me despite battling this annoying disease herself !
