This year our family was unfortunately another family to join those who have had a family member affected by cancer. A sad reality of today’s life is that this is not unusual and 1 in 2 people will be affected by cancer in their lives. Fortunately for us, after chemo and an operation our lucky family is still together. The diagnosis came as a result of another illness causing the tumor to inflame, so we, as a family, hope to raise money to go towards the research into catching signs of cancer sooner. So we don’t have to rely on chance to catch the cancer.

So this September, I’m taking on Sweatember, a 30-day exercise challenge for Cancer Research UK. With our fundraising, we can improve the chances of catching cancer sooner rather than later.
