Jane Tomlinson

Salute that! Jane's list of achievements http://www.bbc.co.uk/leeds/features/jane_tomlinson/jane.shtml My latest killing is: http://www.bookscape.co.uk/short_stories/human_sacrifice.php

Yes I can only say that I'm almost lost for words at the stunning courage and in-yer-face attitude she displayed to the illness and the medical fraternity that said she had just a few months to live, many years ago. And to cycle across America, and she mentioned my fear, dogs who don't like people on bikes. She said that was the thing she feared most. I'd have carried a shotgun. If someone told me I had cancer at her age, I'd have curled up into a ball and whimpered why why why? Until I died. No; a brave brave woman.

I admittedly strugged to recall who she was, initially, but now you have described what she did, I remember... an inspiration! I hope she has gone wherever she hoped to go... :) pe ps oid Blogs! "the art of tea" "that's an odd courgette"

Yes a brave merry face who would not want a statue "because the money should be used to help people." A real British heroine.We should celebrate her and people like her rather than empty cartoons of celebrity.
