My Story
As most of you are aware, my Dad passed away from cancer in July 2017. What you may not know is that this was his 2nd type of cancer, having recovered from Prostate cancer 15 years earlier. My brother was also diagnosed with cancer a number of years ago but, thankfully, he, too, recovered. This is a disease that has had a very profound effect on my family and I want to do my bit to help in the fight to find a cure. This March I shall be walking 10,000 steps every day in order to raise money for Cancer Research UK. My job as a SQL Report Writer involves me sitting in front of a computer for 10-12 hours a day so walking 10,000 steps a day is a challenge in itself. However, I am determined to do it and have even bought a treadmill for those days when I finish work too late to go out. I would be so grateful if you could spare a little cash to help me reach my goal. Thank you
