I'm jumping out of a plane!!
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
A parachute jump is something I've always wanted to do, and combining it with raising money for the Christie made it even more exciting!
On 7th April 2013, I'll be doing a tandem parachute jump at Lancaster!
My sister, Heather, has been a patient at The Christie for 11 years now.
She was diagnosed with Lymphoma (cancer) on 1st May 2002.
Since then, she's had multiple types of chemo (5+), radiotherapy, targeted radiotherapy (which we raised £16,000 to pay for), a Stem Cell Transplant and 2 donor lymphocyte infusions - plus many stays in the Christie, the longest being 3 1/2 weeks for her transplant.
I donated the Stem Cells for my sister's transplant - she is also doing the parachute jump!
Please help me raise my target amount for the Christie - if it wasn't for them, my sister wouldn't be here and healthy enough to do this jump with me!
