Story
Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Many of you will know of my fight with cancer....
For those that don't, here goes...
In 2006, aged 26 I was diagnosed with breast cancer, a lumpectomy and full lymph node removal under one armpit was followed by gruelling chemotherapy and radiotherapy this was followed by post cancer treatment.
In 2010, aged 30 I was diagnosed with a further primary breast cancer and without question made the decision to have a mastectomy, which was again followed by chemotherapy.
Over the next 3 years I underwent further surgery, including a further mastectomy of the remaining breast.... all of which were done to continue my fight for survival. Unfortunately, both my sister and mum have also fought breast cancer as well as other family members and friends.
I am passionate about raising awareness about the signs and symptoms of breast cancer and raising funds for the Prevent Breast Cancer Charity.
Every year, around 55,900 people are diagnosed with breast cancer. That’s around 153 people a day. Prevent Breast cancer want to stop the problem before it starts.
Predict. Prevent. Protect.
Here's the part where I will hopefully relieve you of some money........
Over the next few weeks I am going to organise some events that will hopefully help me raise money for this worthy charity. My colleagues/friends & family are going to support me in this mission so please watch this space for updates.
Please donate any amount, even small donations make a difference.
