Macmillan has helped many people including Amanda who is suffering from breast, liver and bone cancer. Amanda was first diagnosed when she was 43-years-old. She was very surprised and upset to receive this awful news. For a while she continued to live normally and get on with her day-to-day routines. However, when she soon realised that she wasn’t going to get better she decided to get in contact with Macmillan Cancer Support. They gave Amanda advice and reassurance. After this, she made a courageous decision to stop working and try to live the rest of her life to the fullest. By taking this advice she has been able to do many things that she has wanted to for a long time. For example: get married and go to Egypt on a holiday. Even though Amanda doesn’t have long to live, she knows that when she is gone her family will be fully supported.
Amanda is able to keep having treatment in order to as many new and exciting things as possible by money being donated to this charity. Anyone can get involved by fundraising of even just raising some awareness for this amazing organisation. By looking on this website, you will be able to see many different ways in which you can help. http://www.macmillan.org.uk/Home.aspx
