Hi there
Tomorrow I run a mud run with proceeds going to cancer for my best friend who is terminal.
I am also intending to donate some of the proceeds (out of my own pocket) to my best friend and her partner carer for whatever they need. I want to think of a few other fundraisers too.
However it will be a difficult race as I am running for her and she wont be there to support as she is far too weak, which originally she said she would be back in March =(. Also last September we ran the same race and a week later she fell ill which was later diagnosed as cancer. She did an incredible thing that day: racing after a year and 5 months in remission and was so happy and proud and strong.
It is hard. I have been crying on and off since I heard the news nearly a month ago. I feel so sad for her. I want to do her proud tomorrow without any wobbles.
Thanks for even just listening.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
