Hi guys.. so I am taking part in running the London marathon! As you all may know I’m not the fittest or running type l but I’m running in memory of my mum. 

Now my mum was diagnosed with breast cancer when I was 10 years old and throughout my life she struggled with this as well as financial issues. She was then given the all clear for 7years and then the cancer came back with a vengeance! And unfortunately you passed away on the 17/2/2010 peacefully at home! 

I’ve never got over the fact I’ve lost my mum, and I don’t think I ever will, I’ve met the love of my life and we had our son Addison that she will never meet! And the pain of that will never go away. 

But whilst she was having her treatment she went to the Helen Rollason cancer centre at Broomfield hospital! The staff and support she received there was incredible and I can’t thank them enough! Which is why I wanted to run the marathon to raise enough money as a way to say thank you! Without them, the support and the treatment I would not have had the extra 3years I did with my mum. 

So this is for her! And for every other person that has lost a parent, partner, sibling to cancer! So please help me raise the funds to be able to make a difference! 

Thank you! Love mel xxx
