Last year my wife Ellie was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma and had to have intensive chemotherapy to treat it. Thankfully she responded really well to treatment and is in full remission. Due to the amazing research and support of charities like Lymphoma Action a huge proportion of people diagnosed with Lymphoma are successfully treated and survive long-term, but it is still a very traumatic condition to be diagnosed with and treated for, both mentally and physically. Lymphoma Action provide fantastic support for people undergoing treatment for Lymphoma and that is why I would like to raise money for them while running this marathon. Anything you can donate is massively appreciated!
