I have decided to get involved and to make fundraising for Macmillan a priority in life after my mothers death from this disease this month.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;I think after recent events the way i think and feel will change forever and i will be doing this for the rest of my life. I have never felt so sorry for someone who also happened to be my mother. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Im not sure yet as i am still fairly new to this site if this is the right way to go about fundraising/asking strangers for money&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But i would be most gratefull of any donations &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Is there anyone on here who has been under similar circumstances who can just tell me straight what to expect over the next few months. i find it hard to talk to my other family members about this because it is upsetting for them also. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I would very mutch like to hear peoples opinions/advice on this &lt;/p&gt;
