Jamie's nomination story

He has taken part in traiathlons and long bike rides and raised over Ã?â??Ã?£12500 for The Christie charity the hospital that cured his own CancerMy inspiration comes from being what I believe cured of cancer. I feel that a positive outlook after diagnosis was one of the key parts of the cure. Entering The Christie hospital made me realize first hand the reality of what suffering from cancer can do to individuals and there friends and family. I want to raise as much money for the Christie and indirectly help people that are there through no fault of there own Fighting something they can't even see. Through the sponsored events I have taken part in so far I have been in the local newspaper and on Channel M TV so people know my story and know I am trying to make a difference. I would like other people to join the thousands trying to help by getting as much publicity as I can.
