My Story
My mum and I are taking part in race for life in honour of my amazing and very brave Nan, who sadly lost her battle with cancer in March 2014. She fought long and hard against the C word. Her first diagnosis being back in 1991. Nan remained in remission for almost 17 years, when again she was diagnosed with IT in 2007. Still she fought and tried to not let this horrific disease consume her, continuing to work through it all. She battled several times with the C word until it reached more difficult areas. She was brave, a fighter and refused to allow herself to be a victim of the C word and I feel her spirit kept her going those extra years.
