Last night we were joined by 50 friends on what has become our annual 'Light up the Pike' walk for Sally's birthday.

It was a big one this year being Sally's 18th.

We are so grateful to you all for coming along & supporting us. There was so much love for Sally last night & that makes our hearts smile💜

Thank you to The Village Tea Rooms for our pie, chips & peas supper on our return. Delicious! You did a brilliant job! ###💜

September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.

This is Sally on her first day of Year 6 in September 2017, days before we took her to A&E in the early hours of the morning in excruciating pain.

Sally had been complaining of pain in her back/shoulder during the summer holidays. We thought perhaps she had hurt her back dancing or doing gymnastics, two of the things she loved.
During a visit to the GP it was suggested she had torn a tendon or ligament & she was referred to a shoulder specialist.

A&E sent her for a chest x-ray, told us she had a chest infection & sent us home with antibiotics!

A week later Sally was in a great deal of pain again. We went straight back to the
hospital where another X-ray was done.

The following day we were called back to the hospital for an ultra sound & CT scan.
That day our lives changed forever. We were told that Sally had a mass on her 7th rib & we were being referred to Oncology at Manchester Children's Hospital!

11/02/2024

We presented two out of our four chosen charities, Rory’s Box & Milly's Smiles with the money raised from 'Shine for Sally3' this morning. They both received £1,325.00 from the amazing total of £5,300.00!!
Thank you to everyone involved. We have done Sally proud!💜

Happy Heavenly 17th Birthday Sally!
Always in our thoughts & forever in our hearts!💜

We lit up the Pike last night for Sally's birthday weekend.
Thank you to everyone who came along. We are so grateful for all your love & support.

We are keeping your light shining Sally.
Hope you had the best view of it all! 💜
