Story

Jill my wife is 52 (she will kill me for saying that), it is fair to say she has not had the best of luck medically in her adult life (Crohns Disease including muntiple operations, Gallbladder removal, to name just two).

6 weeks ago she had a pain in her chest, so she went to the doctors, who after blood tests, referred her to hospital. She had a CT scan, followed by further blood tests and another CT scan and has been diagnosed with cancer. She has to go for a biopsy next week to determine what type either Lymphoma (can be treeted, depending on the stage), or Pancreatic (terminal).

Jill is a sweet lovely and caring woman, who will help anyone when needed, now she is in need, I want to do what I can to help her (nothing less than you would expect).

Jill's friend Jayne passed away a few years ago with breast cancer and they (MacMillan Cancer Care) were there for Jayne in her last weeks and I know if needed, they will be there for Jill as well.

I want to raise as much money as I can for MacMillan Cancer Care (her nominated charity), as they do so much good work for people who have been diagnosed with cancer, the familty of cancer sufferers or end of life care.
