Our motivation this year is our mum, our nonna xxx ?❤️
My Story
Cancer goes through my family like there's no tomorrow but this year means so much more to us as my mum, after having a routine mammogram has been diagnosed with breast cancer. This is mine and Aimee's way of saying thank you because if it wasn't for the research and the routine mammograms then my mum would have gone undetected as she didn't feel a lump and had no symptoms. I would like to raise awareness of just how important these routine checks are so weather it be a smear test or a mammogram please attend these appointments as no one knows what is happening with our bodies. Early diagnoses is so important as it reduces the amount of treatment that may be needed and survival rate greater. So as a big thank you to cancer research and all the amazing staff at the QA Aimee and myself will dedicate our weekend doing Pretty Muddy on the 8th July and Race For Life 9th July on Southsea Common. Wishing our mum and nonna a speedy recovering, we all love you to the moon... And back again xxx
