'Race For Life'

1 minute read time.

Along with about 2,000 other gals me and my wonderful daughters and friends did the race today.  It was the most moving thing ever, just to see so many people there who have either lost someone to this god awful disease or have someone going through it, or are racing because they have cancer!

We had a wonderful day, we dressed as pink pussy cats including tails!, My daughters were the honey bunnys................... I felt very emotional and walked the 5k with a big lump in my throat, especailly as my racing comrades had messages on their backs to support me. i am very lucky to have such lovley caring friends, and not just those that joined me today but all those who sponsored me to raise over £300!

Afterwards we had a party at home and the girls decorated the house in pink and my youngest daughter Kate made a banner which we hung outside the house and lots of pink balloons. Everyone came, even my son in law, we buried the hatchet and decided life is too short for ill feeling. :) It made my day because we were all together. I was with the people i care most about.

Reality tomorrow back at the hospital for more scans and x rays and then in on Thursday for the op............................... I feel really odd in some ways because at this present moment i feel like i am in a strange unreal place, i know what is on the horizon, and it doesnt scare me anymore................... not sure if i should be scared? Perhaps i will get a wake up call before Thursday and become a gibbering wreck

Anyway enough waffle i am off to look at the HEART FM website, they took our picture in all our pink and said it would be on their website.   I know i know fame at last .................. autographs later ok. :)

Love

Jules xx

    WOW what an amazing but also very emotional day, I took part in my 1st Race For Life with my beautiful and amazing best friend Jules, her gorgeous daughters an caring friends.. I just want to share with your lovely macmillan friends what an inspiration you are to me and everyone else you know, but since your diagnosis you have not cease to amaze me, and I agree with Gerald your like a weeble, you wobble BUT you dont fall down!! We have had a few wobberly lips in the last few weeks but as we both share the same 'weird' sense of humour we have also had many laughs, sometimes uncontrolable.. I have said many times I am with you every step of the way, and your never going to feel alone.. No matter what the next few months get thrown at us we are a team, BUT you do know the rules if your sick when Jeremy Kyle is on your in the cupboard!!!!!!!

    Love You Lots xxxxxx
