I would like to say a big thank you to everyone one of you who has posted positve engouragement in the past. I am currently training to run a half marathon, later this summer, and everytime I hit a hard patch, mantally or phsically, I somehow always end up thinking of all the positive thought you all give, and before you know it I am through it! I am currently at the 8.5 mile stage so have a little of the way to go. I have been meaning to write this post for ages, as you have no idea just how much you have all helped me! I am hoping to run for Macmillan nurses, they are a cancer care charity in th UK.
I was intending to run this for myself, as I couldn't find the right charity to supprt. Earlier this year, my FIL got rushed to hospital, and had an emergency life saving operation. He had a burst anyurisim, the Doctors keep telling him he shouldn't be alive. During this operation one of his kidneys got damaged and he got a touch of jaundice, so they did a scan, only to find out that there was a lump on one of his kidneys, it was cancer.Added to this they found that the tumour was on his good kidney not the one that was damaged. He is currently getting heat treatment to gradually kill the tumour. The doctor haven't used this treatment on a tumour so large before, so if this doesn't work, he will be on dialisis, as his bad kidney isn't functioning well enough. Anyway to cut a long story short this charity who are more known for their nursing care during bad spells or when you are nearing the end of you life, also help with the legal side of things, and this is where hey have really helped my inlaws. I feel that I f I can give part of that to someone else, then I will have made the difference to someone else in need too.
So again a big, big thank you!
