"1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime." This is a pretty startling statement, but I guess given the odds we should not be surprised if we find cancer affecting our family or friends again. Earlier this year my sister-in-law Angie was diagnosed with lung cancer. In true Angie fashion she has said this isn't a drama or a fight it is just something she wants to get sorted. Following speedy surgery and ongoing care, Angie is receiving the treatment needed for this to be a cancer survival story. I had hung up my Race for Life trainers after running for so many years, but it is time to dust them off and for Team Terry to reconvene in support of the fantastic work that Cancer Research UK do. Every single pound you donate makes a difference to Cancer Research UK’s groundbreaking work, so please sponsor me now.
