I didn`t want to broadcast my beautiful daughters passing but since James is doing this for the Royal Marsden Cancer Campaign I wanted to say a couple of things!

Our Jo or as I used to call her Spanna was diagnosed on the 22nd December with breast then secondary breast cancer which had spread to her liver & bones! on that day she had her first treatment of Chemo & then for the next six months of which she was doing quite well. then over the next 6 to 8 weeks after her treatment she got some normality back into her life going on Holiday with her Fiancae & going back to work for 3 days a week, then she got the news that the tumour on her liver was active again & that was the turning point she over the next 4 weeks just deteriated & on the 22nd of September at 7.45pm she passed.

It was such a tragic time & especially that back in november 2008 that her long time boyfriend of 8 years had proposed to her & they had set the date for there Wedding on the 3rd October 2009 unfortunately she was 10 days short of her getting to that day & we together with Carlos her Husband to be gave her the best funeral we could on the same day & in the same church, She bless her was in her Wedding dress & we had a white Hearst instead of the traditional black one & we dressed the same as we were going to for the Wedding!

There were 300+ people that turned up & she would have been proud!

A lovely tribute to her Life..

Anyway today is a month since she passed & I want to thank people for there donations in Jo`s memory & to also thankyou for the kind comments Old Ford Skoolers had put up..

I hope James & all his workmates & friends can collect a big ammount of money for the Royal Marsden Cancer Campaign as they looked after Jo so well during her treatment & especially her last days that its giving back something for other patients!

 

 

Kind regards to everyone Jeff Harris..
