Story

After been diagnosed with Breast Cancer about six weeks ago, I had a mastectomy two weeks ago and I have decided to colour my hair bright pink and then to shave it all off for charity, i will be starting chemotherapy 4 -5 weeks so I have decided to make this into an event to raise some money for Charity, if you can not make the night you can make a donation through this page. I wish for all donations to go into Mr Kurup's fund at the Breast unit at North Tees Hospital to be used for what ever is needed and not covered by the NHS. I have been treated by him and his team they do a fantastic job and I want to give something back to them to say thank you! Many men and women are diagnosed with Breast Cancer each day and everyone is treated as an individual with care and dignity so please; help me to give a local breast unit in our community something back. I am trying to make something positive out of something negative and it gives me something to do. Thank you so much for visiting my JustGiving page.

UPDATE:

On Wednesday 21st September I went to see the consultant and was given the best news ever. The 12 lymps nodes that were taken have all came back clear plus the other lump that was found from mri scan, that also came back clear aswell so I don't need to have chemotherapy now or maybe a 1% chance I might. I am still holding my charity night but I won't be shaving my hair off, I've had it cut short, dyed it pink for the event and I am donating my pony tail to the princess fund that make wigs for children who have or are suffering with this horrid disease. I Have couple of biker mates (men) that agreed to be waxed on the night including the chest 😀😀😀

Just want to say a massive thankyou to all who have donated already as this is still a great cause. Looking forward to seeing you on the night if you can make it 14 th oct if not thanks again for your donation it does make a difference 💖💖💖💖xx
