Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Two years ago I found a lump as big as a fingernail ( not big ) while in the bath .. Don't think I would of found it early if I'd been having showers !! I was 46yrs. It turned our lives upside down .. With two young children , one moving school and the other 8 yr . It was a long year ,but I have to say you find your friends through the dark ...I had food deliveries , cocktails delivered on bikes ,dressed up rabbits with Easter eggs for my kids xx the most dedicated family that rolled up from London every three weeks when chemo was on. I was smiling and kicking Cancers ass .so now is the time to ride this mad ride .. I'm in bed normally by 8 (tamoxifen will do that to you !! )This race doesn't start till 21:30!! It will take hours but it's only one night of pain for all those fighting .. I will have you in my head when my ride gets tough and I want to  stop . I'm doing this so you don't have too xxxx thanks you for supporting my lovely family , help me support others going through it now , everyone know someone  xxxxx
