Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am back and with more good reasons to do the walk!

I have been taking part in Moorfields Eye Charity yearly Eye to Eye Walk since it was first launched in 2015. In November 2021, I was diagnosed with a rare form of an aggressive breast cancer and an aggressive regime of treatments followed for many months. My worsening condition then didn’t allow me to join the actual walk on 20 March 2022,  But I continued my fundraising by doing the ‘My eye to eye’ using my regular short walks in between treatments.

After series of chemotherapies, radiotherapies and surgery, the cancer recurred in June 2022. By this time, it had also spread to my liver and bones. Many eventful months followed. 

All the experiences I have since cancer diagnosis, most of them very tough and complicated, do not make me less valuable as a person. I am  surrounded by so much love from my family, friends and colleagues which make me feel grateful to God each day. Life is lived with purpose and meaning, and so much joy. Yes, life can be joyful even with cancer!

I am still on chemotherapy, but will endeavour to do the walk with my team  on 5 March 2023. I will walk: to raise money for charity, to challenge myself, to improve my whole well-being and to have fun. Please join me on this memorable walk with your kind donation.
