Not an easy post to write, but time to make it common knowledge. Becky and I popped down to Loch Fyne this weekend, but have had to come home earlier than expected, as Becky wasn't very well.
Anyway that's not what this post is about. Becky has recently been diagnosed with secondary cancer, so is incurable. Becky is still waiting on results, so at the moment we don't know how extensive the cancer is or if she has months or years ahead of her. We also don't know what treatment plan they can offer her. The not knowing is the worst part as we can't plan etc.
There isn't much I can do other than be there for Becky. We've been together for 37 years, and we're still each others best friend as well as spouse.
In light of the bad situation, I have decided to cycle 300 miles in June in aid of Cancer Research UK. It probably wont benefit Becky, but at least I will feel I am trying to make a difference and possibly help future generations. 300 miles in a month doesn't sound a lot, but when I have cycled less than 50 miles in the past 12 months and carrying a back & leg injury, and that my work roster means I only have 18 days in June to achieve the goal, it's going to be a tall order.
Anyway if anyone would like to donate to cancer research and encourage me in my quest I have attached a link to my giving page.
Please only donate if you want to and can afford to, as times are tough for most these days.
