Story
As you may know I've spent 37years (yup my adult life) working as a Cancer Treatment Nurse, Senior NHS Manager and National Research Ethics Committee Chair. this was stopped when I developed my own cancer, Brain tumour (I'll post photos of it, it's a big one).
Cover photo is 13/4/22 day of diagnosis and day before emergency operation. Second is end June 22 showing brain moving back to where it used to be.
As a lot of you know I've always been proud of hair & beard so this is tough as it's all going to be shaved off. Cover photo is 13/4/22 when discovered & day before op to remove it. Other image is end June 22 with brain moving back into its pushed out home.
Money raised will be split evenly between Maggie's Cancer Support Centre, Newcastle and Maggie's Brains support group that has helped me a lot.

1 year agoDear all Thank you so much for your kind support. I've attached a final photo and message from Maggie's Centre Freeman hospital. I did very little, just sitting down while my hair was being cut. The people who did the real work were you all with the support you gave me. I'll leave this page open until tomorrow so you all can see the final outcome and message. Thanks again Paddy
