Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I was diagnosed with Tonsil & Neck Cancer June 2010, since then I have undergone neck dissection surgery at Northwick Park Hospital carried out by a fantastic surgeon Mr Amin & Team. I then went to Mount Vernon Hospital and had Chemo & Radiotherapy all organised by Dr Lemon and her fantastic team.
On 20th December 2010 my scan showed no evidence of Cancer and I was in Remission! What a Christmas Present!!!
The journey through this treatment was made easier by the fantastic care and support I received from all the staff across the NHS, I can't thank them enough.
My family want to celebrate 'My Recovery' so we have decided to organise a Party (BBQ, Live Music, Raffle Etc) on Saturday 25th June 2011, 4pm until Midnight, at Stoke Park Trust, 225-227 Northern Rd, Slough. SL2 1LU. Adult Tickets £5 & Children Tickets £2. All Ticket & Raffle Money raised is being donated to The Cancer Treatment & Research Trust at Mount Vernon Hospital.
If you would like to join us in this celebration please donate the total cost of your tickets required to this web page and state how many tickets you have purchased with your full name in the message box after making the Ticket Donation and I will reserve your tickets for the day. However if you are not able to join us on the 25th and would still like to make a donation it would be greatly appreciated!!!
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
So please dig deep and donate now.
'And remember when life takes the wind out of your sails, it is to test you at the oars!!!'
Thanks, Love Michele XXX
