Yvette's Race for Life
Clumber Park 5k 2019

I'm taking part in Race for Life to raise money to beat cancer sooner as I am a cancer sufferer and I lost my father to cancer 😔
In memory of
Terry Smith
This February I was rushed into hospital for an emergency operation. Over half my large intestine was removed due to it being blocked and perforated. I awoke to find I had a stoma. I later found out it was cancerous and also detected in my lymph nodes. This makes me a higher risk of it returning. I then went to have preventative chemotherapy which gave me severe side effects which prevented me continuing the full course. Thankfully I feel full of life and really hope this continues. My family and friends have been instrumental in aiding my recovery and I thank them all from the bottom of my 💓. I could not have got through this without their help and support. Cancer is happening right now, which is why I'm taking part in a Race for Life 5k to raise money and save lives.
