Wrexham 5k 2018

I'm taking part in Race for Life to raise money to beat cancer sooner and help vital research!

My Story

October 5th 2017 is a date I'll never forget. Hearing the words "it's cancer" not long after giving birth and being only 33, has changed my world forever. Being diagnosed with incurable breast cancer but very much treatable, means Cancer Research UK is vital in finding new treatments to help me live as normal life as possible and more time with my precious 5 month old baby boy, wonderful boyfriend, family and friends! The medical bit.... Without this research, I wouldn't have been lucky enough to be funded for a new target therapy which gives me the best possible combination of treatment for my cancer! Since diagnosis, two other drugs have been released and another starting human trials which could be options for me in the future! The IMPORTANT bit... So how do I repay my best friends for all their love and support...a 5k fun run of course! ? Some of them are training to run, some of us will be making it up to a quick wiggle (me mainly). All we're asking is if you can spare the cost of a pint or glass of wine as donation for this massively important cause to me and many others!! Thank you for reading xx Cancer is happening right now, which is why I'm taking part in a Race for Life 5k to raise money and save lives. 1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime.

CAUSE

Breast cancer

With almost 140 women diagnosed every day, breast cancer is the most common cancer in the UK. And, although rarer, around 350 men are also diagnosed with breast cancer every year. The good news is more than two-thirds of women now survive 20 years or more. Help Cancer Research UK find new ways to diagnose and treat the disease.
