Tomorrow my daughter will be running in the Great North Run.Three years ago she was diagnosed with her2+ at the age of 39 with a nine month old son.After sixteen months of treatment she never expected to return to feeling as fit as she use to.
With such determination she has trained for the last nine months and no matter how long it takes her tomorrow although I know she secretly would love a decent time ,in my eyes she is already a winner.
Her three year old son also ran in the mini race this morning and never stopped till the finish line.She was so delighted.
Tomorrow with the support of her amazing work colleagues they will all run for Breast Cancer Now.
To all you lovely brave ladies on this forum navigating through a breast cancer diagnosis and sometimes relentless treatment don’t ever give up,there is always hope
Blondegirl 
we will all be virtually cheering them on

@blondegirl Thank you for sharing this gives hope to many with HER2+ diagnosis like myself, with my final Herceptin next week, after nearly 16 months of treatment. I’m 55 but was fit and healthy before and hoping to get back to some normalcy soon.
Well done to her, please share my best wishes for her run tomorrow, I will be virtually cheering her and her colleagues on. 
@naughty_boob I’m sure you will be so relieved to finally come to the end of your treatment and start to feel fit and healthy again
@blondegirl - what an amazing daughter and grandson you have and such a deserving cause to support.
