Story
I'm jogging 28 miles (if you know me then you know that it will be more than 28 miles) in February to transform the future of pancreatic cancer.
My mom is a cancer survivor. She’s been battling this disease for nearly 2 years. Ups and downs along the way. She’s clear of it now but needs ongoing treatment for the rest of her life to control a cancer gene that she is carrying. A small price to pay. Her courage, bravery and spirit has been second to none. Myself, the rest of the family and close friends are all so very proud. Luckily the gene stops with her so myself, my brother and our little ones aren’t at any more risk as anyone else in contracting this terrible condition. On top of this, one of my all time heroes, Terry Hall, of The Specials recently died of this horrible disease. ♥️🏁 LOVE, LOVE, LOVE. I’m doing this challenge to raise a bit of money on behalf of all cancer patients and their families going through hard times.
We're facing a pancreatic cancer emergency - too little has improved and too many people are dying. It's unacceptable that more than half of people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer die within 3 months. But thanks to your support, there is hope.By donating to my challenge, you are making support available for people now and funding world-leading research to find that breakthrough in new treatments which is so desperately needed. For example, just £29 could fund further research to improve the speed of diagnosis. By working together, our actions today can transform the future for people affected by pancreatic cancer. Thank you so much for your support!
