My Flaming Brave Missus

Evening all.

Not many of you know me, and less know what has been going on in my family in the last year.

My missus was diagnosed with invasive Breast Cancer last April and has had a pretty torrid time dealing with the surgery, all the chemo and radio therapy in the last year.

All throughout it she has been really positive and frankly has put me to shame. All the petty whines and gripes I have about work, or kids not tidying rooms really have been put into perspective.

Just before Christmas all the "aggressive" treatments finished, she is now on drugs for at least the next 5 years.

As we walked out of the hospital after the last radio therapy session she announced that she was going to do a sponsored sky-dive for Breakthrough Breast Cancer - and that is now what she is doing at the end of May.

She aims to raise as much money as possible for the charity and has set herself a target of £400. If you fancy sponsoring her that would be great, you can click the link at the end of this post - I feel a bit odd posting this in a public forum, but every penny counts!

If we sort out the Lydden track day in March I will buy everybody a beer!

Cheers

Martin

Well done for going for the jump. To go through what you've been through you have to be so brave that I suppose a jump pales into significance!!! But good luck.

The post was particularly poignant as a close relative had a CT scan a couple of hours ago to see if her cancer has come back

Your post was quite inspirational and gave me hope when I was losing it, so thank you!!

You couldn't pwn your way out of a wet paper bag, with "PWN ME!!" written on it, from the "pwned take-away" which originally contained one portion of chicken tikka pwnsala and the obligatory free pwnpadom.
