Day 9/30 of my #stepupfor30 challenge for Bowel Cancer UK – £207,56 raised 🎉 – and am I over ambitious ?!? Today is the Race for Survival on the other side of the Rhine river. Unfortunately I did not hear about it until two days ago, which is unbelievable, as I am still in treatment …

Radiation 28/28 – I say thank you, give them a thank you card and a large jar of my homemade strawberry rhubarb jam for their breakfast corner and hope that I won’t see them again! The end is here and I am proud beyond belief! ….have not done anything, just layed flat on a bench …
