Ian ,
 good luck to your wife on the run,  cancer reasearch is the only charity i give a regular donation to. I can understand how you all feel i lost my mum to cancer at the age of 14 (few tears now).
My wife done the playtex moonwalk marathon 2 years ago, 26 miles in pink bra middle of the night in London along with 5000 other girls in bras, she sleep for 2 days after this but she raised Just under £2200, which was worth the pain.
I went to all my customers and gave them note and sponsor sheet to them, i would say 90% donated, maybe you should do this to
Good luck
Darren

Thanks Darren,

Sorry if I upset you in anyway and sorry to hear about your Mum.

What your Wife did is fantastic.
I will be giving a note to my customers, as many of them new why I shut down last year and many had asked about Summers progress before the final 4 weeks, i'm sure some of them will sponsor as well as people are on here.

Thank you to the person that just donated

Hi Ian, it was good to talk to you the other day. It's great to see what you and your wife are doing. It's a moving story and I'm sorry for your loss. But doing something positive like this is the finest way to deal with it.

Of course I'll donate something, all the best to you and your family.

Kind regards

Up untill a couple of days ago this was just another story that didnt really mean anything to me i know that might sound harsh or uncaring and i dont mean any offence by it
But we have just found out that my mum has stomach cancer and yesterday she went in for her op to have part of it taken away unfortunately the cancer was worse than they anticipated and her whole stomach was infected so they took the decision to leave it as it would not improve her quality of life she cannot eat or drink ever again and has less than 6 months to live
She has always been there for anyone shes a real people person and even when i was sobbing like a baby she was the one making sure i was okay
It seems cancer is in our family from her dads side with her two sisters and a niece having died with it
I am still feeling quite numb about it at the moment
Hope my small donation can help in some way

I'm so sorry to hear that, is horibble news, it does not sound harsh at all and I know many people feel the same, if they had seem it first hand they would totally think in a different way, watching my neice dying was torture.

if you want to talk, you have my number in a weird way talking to a stranger seems to help as you can say what you really feel, many people on here called and spoke to me whilst Summer was ill, and many a tear was shed by them and they didnt know her, but guess could feel the pain in my voice. (you guys know who you are and I thank you for helping me  it really did make a difference to me, as I had to be the rock for my wife and sister inlaw )
One thing I will say is make the most of the time you have and don't bottle it up its not good for you.
Thank you for your donation, and best wishes to your Mum and to you and your family.

Try and stay strong!

Ian

Your welcome Dean and sorry for setting you off.

I'm 6ft also and cried when I wrote this post out, also again when I uploaded the pic of the race tops. Nothing wrong with tears they are a good release for you, wish I could have at the time (and I don't normally cry either)

Any others reading and have not sponsored this please feel free to donate.

Dean Im really sorry to hear your news, you undoubtedly feel devastated.

If there can be any solace in the fact that others have been where you are before.

My Mother died last year very very suddenly. She was diagnosed with cancer in multiple sites throughout her body, the primary being ovarian. She died 3 days after her diagnosis. We were literally having Sunday lunch with her one week completely unaware of her being ill, the next Sunday she had been dead 2 days.



If I can say anything to help, it is that you MUST spend time with her, we had 3 days where Mum said she was the happiest she had ever been. It is good to know now we were there and 'walked' with her if you see what I mean.

Some people have NO time to set things good and okay with their loved ones.

You have some time, use it.

When Mum first recieved her diagnosis her GP spoke to me and my 2 sisters privately and said 'You are at the start of a journey and afterwards you will be different people' (He was crying when he told us as his Dad had died 5 months earlier) IT will be the same for you Dean. He was right.

My thoughts are with you and your family Dean.



Matt


p.s. its funny Dean what you say about your Mum being strong for you still after her diagnosis and you doing the crying; I went into my Mums bedroom for the first time after she was told, crying (like I am now remembering it) and she was the one saying she wasnt afraid and it was all going to be okay even if she was going to die......theyre Mums to the end, and when theyre gone you know you only had one (that to me is why it is so sad sometimes)
