Skydive
In October I am jumping out of an aeroplane from 15,000 feet to raise awareness of Breast Cancer. (Note This has been re-arranged from May due to unexpected circumstances).
In November last year one of my relatives in her 80’s was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. A week later one of Louise’s best friends (and cousin-in-law) Tasha was also diagnosed at the tender age of 24. In 2011 Kev’s aunt Sylvia gained her angel wings when she was only early 60’s and breast cancer was a contributing factor. I miss her so much and always thought of her as my big sister and often sought her advice when raising my daughters as she was such a fabulous Mother. Consequently, I have decided to use the sky dive as an opportunity to support Breast Cancer charity. Tasha went to the doctors after discovering a dimple on her breast. She was referred to the hospital as a non-urgent case due to her age of 24. She had to wait over 4 months to be told she had Breast Cancer. Tasha is ready for the fight to kick Cancer’s Ass and wants to promote the importance of checking your boobs no matter how old you are. As part of her campaign to raise awareness check out the link to her TV interview. https://www.facebook.com/CharlotteBriereEdneyITV/videos/647331939015386/UzpfSTE1OTgzOTM0Njg6MzA2MDYxMTI5NDk5NDE0OjEwOjA6MTU0OTAwNzk5OTotNTA4NDUyNDc5MjEwNjM4MjQyMA/
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.
