My Story
On the 22nd April, four of us (Leo, Hamish, Adil, Ben) will set off on a 2 week cycle, from Land's End at the bottom of the country to John O'Groats at the top. We are raising money in support of the most excellent Dan Money (more on him below!). The money we raise will help fund life-saving research and bring forward the day when all cancers are cured. Thank you for your support! This is Dan's story: I was diagnosed with bowel cancer aged 24, in November 2022, after having some symptoms for just two weeks. My diagnosis and prognosis have been a complete shock to me, my family and friends. I have really appreciated all the support and treatment that I have received from all the staff at the Cancer Centre, the Oncology Treatment Suite and the colorectal cancer services team at the Q.E.Hospital in Birmingham. As an F2 Junior Doctor I appreciate how important up-to-date research is in helping increase treatment options for people, like me, who are currently undergoing chemotherapy. I have chosen Cancer Research UK as the charity I would like to raise money for because the research they fund is crucial in the search for new treatment options, early diagnosis and hopefully cures for all cancers.
