I am fundraising for Pancreatic Cancer UK.

This year, on 19th June 2020, it will be 10 years since my Mum died.  She died of pancreatic cancer which is incredibly hard to diagnose, mainly because by the time you find out you have it, it is too late to be able to treat.  My Mum knew that it could not be treated and lived for 7 months from diagnosis.  She was stoic in how she approached the cancer.  She refused to let it get her down.  She told me she wanted to enjoy the simple things in life such as waking up to sunshine and enjoying the scent of yellow roses.  I think of my Mum every day.  Very often I have a cry about her as I miss her every day too.  I always felt loved by my Mum.  I told her everything and I miss being able to do that now.  She was kind, loving and gentle.  I used to love making her laugh and we enjoyed each other's company.  I don't talk about her that much to others as sometimes its hard when its been nearly 10 years since she died.  To be able to tell someone that I think of her every day.  I know you, my friends will understand that and I hope you will support me in my challenge.

I’m taking on Challenge 24 at home to raise money for this vital cause because 24 people are still dying every day from pancreatic cancer.

I will run, cycle or walk every day for 24 days for at least a mile.  This might not sound much to some but for me to do this every day, it will be a challenge for me.  I often cycle or walk but then I tend to rest up for a couple of days but now I am intent to do this every day!

Please support me and my fundraising. Together we can make a difference and fund life-saving research.
