Skye's Race for Life

On the 18th September 2017 I received the call no-one wants to get, "I'm sorry it's Cancer". At just 25 years old I was diagnosed with stage 2 cervical cancer. It was a rare and aggressive form of cancer (just my luck). I have been through 25 sessions of external radiotherapy, 5 sessions of chemotherapy and 3 sessions of brachytherapy (internal radiation) over a course of almost 7 weeks. I now have to wait 3 months before I can have the checks which will determine whether I have beat it or not. My life is forever changed now and I have to adapt to certain changes to my body and lifestyle forever. But I am alive and so far I have a future I will continue to fight for. There have been some people who have not been so lucky and during my journey I met wonderful people who's time is limited. Cancer sucks and I will do what I can to help every single person who wants to fight and who wants to win what seems like a never end war. My mother and 3 of my lovely friends are running by my side to raise money for Cancer Research UK. So donate today and help bring forward the day when all cancers are cured.
