Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am going to run 30km during the month of February to raise money for Myeloma Uk in the memory of my Nanny.

My Nanny was diagnosed with Myeloma (bone cancer) in March 2022, she was a happy, fun and lively 83year old who loved spending time with her family and going on holiday. A Wife, a Mother to three, Grandmother to four and Great-Grandmother to one (soon to be two).

My Nanny died on the 29th Nov 2022, eight and a half months after she was diagnosed. By the time she was diagnosed she was already feeling very poorly and unfortunately never felt herself again despite treatment.

Nanny looked after everyone and so when everyone had to start looking after her, she found it very hard. Because of the risk of covid when Nanny was on Chemo, it was hard to spend time with her, but when we did, she always managed to smile and laugh and be Nanny.

I know there are a lot of different cancers each one as horrible and frightening as the next but I want to try and make sure that anyone who is diagnosed with Myeloma has the best chance of survival or as long a life as possible when living with Myelmoa and those who have family or friends diagnosed will have them with them for as long as possible.

Please give what you can in the memory of my Nanny Carole Ann Smith.
