Story

Over 10 years ago my Dad got diagnosed with bowel cancer and it felt like the end of the world. But he didn’t let it get to him he had surgery and was so positive! He then got cancer in the liver, lung, liver again and then lung.. He had 5 lots of surgery in 2 years and still stayed so positive!! 

After that we all thought that’s it, no more cancer then 6 years on he then got diagnosed with leukaemia with no cure. But still he has never given up. He got told he is to have chemotherapy every 3 weeks for the rest of his life. But still he remains positive. I don’t know how he does it but I am so proud of him. 

I am running London Marathon for him! I want to raise as much money as I can to help with the medicine to help people like my dad. 

Please donate whatever you can to help this amazing charity.

Thank you xx
