Story

Sharon passed away on Wednesday 8th April. She was.diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015 which she overcame before it returned two years later. Sharon faced these difficult years with courage, selflessness and humour right till the end. She had the ability to light up every corner of the lives she touched and she will be greatly missed by many.

She often said that as cruel as the disease was it gave her the opportunity to meet the most amazing people. All the staff at Dr Kershaws certainly fall into this category. The unflinching love, support and compassion they provided us all as a family will never be forgotten and it was Sharon's wish that donations in her memory would go to support the remarkable work they do.
