On the evening of Saturday 16 October, we are taking part in Light the Night because blood cancer has touched our lives. History begins when we were at school, we had a great circle of friends and one of us happen to meet the love of her life and most definitely her soulmate when she was 15 and he 16. They were inseparable right from the get go to the very end. They grew into one person and in the end you couldn’t tell one from the other. What a romance!! They had two beautiful girls, three grandchildren and a beautiful dog. We all believe if we had a cure for leukaemia none of this loss would’ve been necessary. She would still be a shining light so bright for all of us to emulate. We are hoping to raise money now so no one else needs to feel the loss of losing one close to them. And if the angels do need to take them maybe we can ease the pain and burden a little by supporting the families and their costs due to living with leukaemia. The more money we can raise the quicker we will be able to eradicate this terrible disease from the world.
