Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 11th February 2011 I found out I had Lymphoma,

I hadnt heard of it before but have tried to become an expert to give us the best chance of getting back to my happy life with my husband and beautiful daughter Lottie who will be 3 years old in April. I have the very best family behind me, Brilliant sister and best buddy Mandy, and always there for us my Mum and my lovely Dad! not to mention Auntie Linda, four great cousins, Emma, Kieron ,Colin and Carla and the clan, and wonderful inlaws too not forgetting my Nan, or as Lottie calls her GG great grandma! without them and my amazing friends I would never have got through the last two weeks.

My husband found this Bike ride on the website for the UCLH when we came home from the hospital and some fantastic family and friends want to help and support us to raise money for the UCLH where I was treated for 8 days of my first round of chemo. This is the boys event, the girls are already sorting out our event too!

The Bike Ride is 12th June , we will have a picnic after, come and join us, keep your fingers crossed for some nice weather!

Help us raise money this summer, I want Lottie to rememeber a fun summer, not me being poorly so we will be having as much fun as possible.

If you want to read more about our story please take a look at my Blog for updated info, which i m trying to keep up so my amazing family and friends know the whole story right up to now, I try and update most days if not a few times a week depending on how I am feeling, I ve had 6 rounds of chemo now, and may need two more, its getting harder each time, but I m still hoping and demanding a positive result to get back to my great life
