Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page

My mum got diagnosed with cancer in 2008. I didnt really know what to expect and how horrible cancer can be for anyone, plus the gruelling treatments that one has to go through.  I struggled to watch the disease develop whilst my mum remained positve thoroughout even though it was terminal cancer. She was a fighter and i know didnt want to go - but sometimes our options are taken away from us -the staff and teams around her were fantastic, not to just her, but supporting the family during and after my mums death. i received various pamper treatments, counselling and they even offered my daughter JLS tickets. : )

Its taken 2 years for me to want to thank the staff at The Marie Curie Hospice Penarth (Holme towers) how much i appreciate their amazing work and would like to ask if your my friend or family visiting my page  to help me achieve my goal in fundraising for this unique hospice we have in south wales.

well i hear the Inca trek isn't easy( 7- 8hours trekking per day) and i really want to go for it--- life is too short wouldn't you agree, so in the meantime i am keeping my fitness up by doing my normal netball training but i am keen to take part in the Cardiff Burn in October 2012 which i hope you will sponser me it consist's of a 10k run(6miles), 30k bike ride (11miles) finished off by a 3k (1mile) kayak.On paper sounds easy but im estimating this baby is going to test me to the max and take me about 3 hours to complete.eek! so lots of training for me to try and fit in beforhand.  i also will be organising various little or big events along the way so hope you can support me muchos please : )

ive got 2 years to hit my target and my targets will be £500 every 6 months i am nervous but excited at the same time so wish me luck. Nanna Marge would be proud mun'

many thanks for donating and or visiting my page   NIcky b xx
