Today I had my 6 month consultation with my haematologist – almost 2 years after I finished treatment for my Hairy Cell Leukaemia relapse. The news is all good, as normal as can be – next check-up in 6 months.
So, in addition to a consultation in September, I will be running The Big Half in London, raising funds for Blood Cancer UK. This is my second time doing this particular half-marathon, having previously completed it in (checking Strava…) in 2021 in 1:48:32 – so in addition to my fundraising target, I have a time target!
The Big Half route starts at Tower Bridge and passes through four boroughs of London Tower Hamlets, Southwark, Lewisham and Greenwich.
My fundraising page is on JustGiving – if you can spare the price of a coffee or a pint, I would be very grateful. This is the latest in my fundraising events for Blood Cancer UK, having previously participated in the Ride London 100 Mile cycle on a number of occasions, undertook a virtual Lands end to John O’Groats during lockdown and several other smaller events, running, yoga and of course a tea party!

Thank You!
