Death doesn't arrive with the prognosis
This is the motto of one of Britain's most famous cancer-fund-raisers, Jane Tomlinson, who died this week, seven years after she was given six months to live.
She is an inspiration to anyone living with this illness. We can't all aspire to run marathons and climb mountains, but we can aspire to be like her, not stopping until we have to.
Her story and obituary are covered in these two articles from the Guardian this week.
She has already raised £1.75 million pounds for cancer charities. If you would like to honour her and continue raising money for her work, you can donate on-line: http://www.justgiving.com/janetomlinson

She was indeed.
