Jessica Higgins fundraising for Cancer Fund For Children in Cancer Fund for Children Firewalk
Last year I was lucky to be able to have treatment for cancer, but the side effects were pretty brutal with both therapies causing burns or burning sensations, so it maybe seems a little odd to challenge myself with walking over burning coals, but it's a challenge I'm ready for, and this time I'm in control! Navigating cancer diagnosis & treatment was tough; especially as a parent to a young child. Cancer Fund for Children's work was so helpful for us, and I am keen to give back so they can continue to support families like mine. I figure nothing can be as tough as surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, so light up that fire, and bring it on (and please sponsor me 😍)...
