Thanks for taking the time to visit my website. I'd like to tell you a little bit about myself. I'm a wife and mother of 3 young children, Matthew 13, Ellie 10 and Freddie 6. I was first diagnosed with Breast Cancer in 2001 at the age of 36. Following Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy, I was in remission until a chance MRI scan in Feb 2005 for an unrelated problem, detected that the Cancer had returned. I was then diagnosed with Secondary Breast Cancer. The likely prognosis given in February was 18 months to 5 years. I then had to undergo aggressive Chemotherapy, but following the results of a recent bone scan, it was found that the Cancer is still spreading.
The treatment in Germany will cost thousands of pounds and for most people like myself, the opportunity for this is a dream. Many of my Family and Friends want to make this dream a reality and are making tremendous fund raising efforts, because without them, I would not be able to seek the treatment that I so obviously need and which is not being offered in this country.
Reading to Portsmouth Bike Ride
Sponsored Men’s bike ride – Reading to Portsmouth. 35 very eager men left Reading at 8am this morning to ride 67 miles to the Victory Ship in Portsmouth. We couldn’t have asked for the weather to be any better. 8 hours later, 35 exhausted, but proud men made it to the Victory. I know it was quite a hard slog but I am very very grateful, especially to Darren for suggesting it and for jointly organising it with Steve. My thanks also go to Reading East MP Rob Wilson for help in starting the proceedings.
