In a moment I'll be chatting to a new Who decided that she wanted to help patients in hospital when our own mother in law spent 4 years in hospital fighting cancer talking to Ryan the other side of the disco. Sunday to Thursday 10 to one a it's a light night Graham trying to guess tonight a slow rain Lewis who decided along with her husband Lady that they wanted to help patients in hospital when her own mother in law spent 4 years in hospital fighting cancer and this was back in 20 Tam. The way that she helps is to supply things that the patients may need on a day to day basis that they can't access because we're basically are stuck in hospital and arrangements when the program run out Lorraine thank you very much indeed for joining in the program tonight. No fellow so the story starts there and all really starts when Li your husband's mother was diagnosed with cancer to talk through those an issue or days later Yeah I sure thought I mean 2010 minute even though we still like nights we've known Hodgkin's lymphoma so that was a complete surprise to us so because it's taken a long time to diagnose so should not my man on the plane might spend 4 years in an out doctor told while he was having treatment and to be during that time it was like you realize how tough it was for people going through treatment how lonely it was and how long you have spent you know not to tell you. The rain very very tough for the both of you and obviously your mother ill or as well. But really tough for you you know relentlessly going through what your mother in law was going through and you having to be there as well yeah yeah it was and it was during that time because my father in law was taking a lot about looking after people but he has a heart attack and passed away in expectedly and he kind of skiing with it as it was really like. It was when we were then I mean every day we live how tough it's the people on the site that I. Now in amongst all of this there was another catastrophe that was going on here over the flooding I believe Tell me about this yes I was joking about how most Well we've gotten rebuilt how something how they're being dealt with properly and we have been mightily underplayed after thinking about how we have to live in a hotel for 6 months was it was we go. Everything that could possibly go wrong with going wrong about how I'm still here if I should look at La Pierre very stressful time for you and your husband obviously I was close to around you as well and that awful news that at least had a heart attack and passed away as well I mean just so much going on here Lorraine Yeah it was that. When you know I look back and into about you just realize. Both of you do realize what was going on all what could a back when I was going to come to harm and I was both got to do something. About not the health of this and so because he was at this point when your father Lord passed away the realized how actually ill Lee mom was turned out that you were he was actually protecting Yeah yeah which I'm not I understand why you do it because you don't want to worry people and you want to my story about you know you move the thought that you're doing that they will attack you and I have nothing to worry about but I think to make that never been an experience before will not anybody has got to drive the concrete treatment for me it really opens up my eyes about what it must be like with somebody so whilst all this was going on emailed some observations and it was there were some things in hospital for patients that. Just went available Yeah I was just I think about the moment when always at one point you can now think you. Looked pretty as a passion and it cost $10.00 pounds watch t.v. And it was all the while his you at your lowest point have to be paying for something like gods because that is basically a By think that will take for granted and they will not be alive for 45 Micah's they know the book because I was and what I mean all. Mike is look why it must be a lot of the not position so what did you do about it yeah of course with passing the t.v. It really does make a star for I wanted to buy thickly the unit in a concrete General Hospital where I see the fight of the fall that I wanted to come by for 43 days the people in Austin I consulted to help the pi. I decided to sign up for Tough Mudder both a good effort than I would normally think of awful hard to believe have been out with an expected I think to get people to sponsor me. And then arc without. You actually funded the purchase of 14 tv's and d.v.d. Players Yeah yeah so how did you raise the money for that so it was yes so I did he want to call on the 1st family is a clock mother and then that was in 2014 and the 2nd one I was it was an obstacle I thought with 20 miles it's going to be cold and I have the 2 year period and I go to his life was 14 t.v. And d.v.d. Player thought I'd be out the pie in the morning so when you then went into the hospital their new single The change to those T.V.'s made. How did you feel about that. Because it was more walking past there were many for the for you and I might be about nothing like you. And I. Thought it would be a lot on t.v. With icons so I don't think the program or the thinking about come to me. I get overly happy Yeah well that was just the beginning of what you've done and which is going to take a break here for some music but so when we come back we'll talk about other things that you've done and are continuing today do that in a few moments time online Ikram Torrington b.b.c. Radio w. The Parents want to talk tonight it's like my gran trying to My guess the saving is Lorraine Lewis who along with her husband lay as set up the Louise Foundation it's a charity that supplies things for people with cancer who have to spend long periods of time in hospital so we were just talking about how you 1st started fundraising to buy 14 T.V.'s for the rooms on the cancer ward actual local hospital Yeah you know just another day to day ne that started with the shopping list from your mother in law told me through that Yes So when we would get out the hospital because I would lie when we are by it privately. I might want to only because we could I got her start oh. Get the bit where the Ivy opposable toiletries So when we would have all of the hospital we would get this last week is only 3 people made mobile got the shop and bring it back and then we'd go around and it was nice because you got a boundary with a people out and then we could get time home with them as well speakin and say How did I work with you're talking about there's a lot of stuff on lay some things I know it's there and it just made a difference to how people felt and a rain I understand is very quickly turned into next challenge yet from not before well if Al Gore has you know a good auditor more not less give gifts bicyclists people on a regular by faith to cheer them up also in hospital and give them things that might not be up to a folder or have somebody to go out and get them started with a sort of a septic out it's a which we did in 2016 where we be able to give give the people so this was a gift boxes to patients Yeah and what sort of my chums are we talking about here that would be in the gift boxes Yes So we did last if enjoy things they could be a magazine has a book it could be a point of praise pocket right Diaz things that we've seen that people need to also I want I can see not that you guys in the polls would be of benefit to them and we give them a free as well but people after way about being I was with all of them. And I believe you've been quite clever about sourcing some of the items that go into these boxes tell me about that yeah because when we thought we kind of did it backwards we said we chatted to me and I thought we need to get them to be outside get these gifts. What we saw at the start with each of my the list of all the things lead to companies whether it was not you know like who hacked into how I'm explaining what we're trying to do and why we would go in it and people get back in contact by the last couple of days and I want to support it with a right to get paid to be judged on companies to help us get always has the gift bags as well as things like you know as well were you surprised that the reaction you got from companies I was because the food the charity. They let people be willing to be so given to his son this negativity when people are coming back and fighting knowledge yeah we want to help we were really surprised because now there are 32 different types of gift boxes. Without naming any company names here just give me some sort of idea of what could be in any of these boxes yes you could law if you have to be bought because the law pound ploy to make the be not meant for the phases of life has been challenged. By products that could be a popular idea it could be a blanket. A book stylez so many different choices and it keeps growing. And when you give one of these gift boxes what's the reaction you can from the patients. A lot of them times they thought expected to be Safari stuff probably one of the how do you think has been people that we are given the gift for so we really got one nothing but boy it. Was a lot of companies you know he's going to expect to get something. Laca gift for nothing but if the fighting people look we are going to find Mimi's and I when we tell them the reason why we've there when it then people understand. Nothing about life that far because sometimes people always think you need to tie go Also when people are really quite wealthy model something I would have been I've heard old will laugh when I have anybody to come in and give them a gift you get so many different amazing reactions and receiving a gift as well. Is not just right you have to raise money as well because it's not just on donations so you've been raising money yourself a place yeah every year why I might decide for me when I see the tv's I want to buy money personally to give back because well. The last 15 challenges I believe I. Shall want to Switzerland and on the mound came out was than 10000 a device many fatalities all you can be thinking of calling for the soul bit pricey and how did that go climbing that mountain in Switzerland it was crazy it took. 12 hours today and it was really not because how it came about is the guy that organized the trip I had met him in the hospital and I was given gifts to his face before he passed away I thought we were able to do it as a great challenge and you know like many fatalities both in memory of people a passed away as well. And what about the 1000 miles in 20 something you know about how come you're swimming in the back. There was a thought because I know I'm lucky that I'm healthy and fit and I wanted to buy city you thought to be able to give back and how close I started. Love is giving love monofilm power obstacle runs I for a year and there's 1000 miles and I'll buy used the money things and God's will if people know how much money he writes Personally I'll probably say since I started it all this I probably about 5000 pounds. And both you and your husband Lee have full time jobs but how do you still manage to run the charity Rice money and also do you full time jobs if how exactly this psycho a lot of Jacqueline and Luckily I work study supported. The really quiet soft people of course and I'm all about what we think with how most people come forward often to volunteer but we do have about 40 volunteers now got help because of the week with getting the good part ready and how come the time the knowledge and also the people well I am hospitals currently working with yes I was the barman and we had no fountain general b.m.r. Free showers no fun than castration but no stinky left that I'm with Lieutenant Bill next. Fantastic And do you see that growing is that what's the future Yeah I mean we do get contact some of the hospitals are kind of divide our gift tax class so I mean you have to buy sickly help as many people as possible in different hospitals around the country country because if they not it does make a difference I have a nice gift and how can someone give that on if suspended people. How many boxes a year do you supply at the moment. At the end of by the end of the hillbilly that's the thousands that have given Wow yeah that's a tremendous amount to my Yeah it's incredible when we fast back to the festival $600.00 and every year we keep well when. At least a week we've been given by thickly to 2000 to 5 or 2000 a month if we give to the house because we will say you must need more more on chimps full of these boxes continually Yeah we're really lucky that people continue to die on a regular by faith and I'm really lucky that he'd want to get involved in the polls does you know we're really lucky in that respect but we do get people going I want to I going to buy food well should any my listeners want to get involved and supply items or just get in touch how can I do that yeah if I do you sort of our website which is m w w w dot the new with Dice dot com I don't recal I I Miss Goldy of mice about how we what we were about and how does a night or day 12.

Big bust ups with either a very good friend or maybe a family member and lots of people share their thoughts and e-mail coming to me just before I go into the news at 11 o'clock and I just want to read this out to you it's from somebody like to remain anonymous and they say. I was best friends with a girl from the age of 7 back in the early 1970 s. We were soul mates we made each other love and we grew up we accepted each other for all our life decisions that we made not always the best choices but we never criticised each other when I was very ill back in 1987 she helped me get through a very difficult life changing surgery I lost my job when I told my boss that I was ill and the skill set me on a path to a career in journalism which I was recovering from my story when I was recovering from my operation I've been running my own p.r. Business now for the last 14 years following her advice to spend my post hospital recovery time doing a writing course I was bridesmaid at her wedding and she was a bridesmaid at mine in 2001 I'm godmother to one of us aunts However after the birth of my 2nd son in 2006 with my husband experiencing a period of illness and unemployment I was in a position where finances were all for. This girl gave me a Christmas gift which I sold on e Bay and she saw it listed after this she severed relationship because she said if I hadn't wanted the gift then I should have told her and I could have sent it back to her I was defensive at the time as you are when you're up against it financially and said she gave me the gift and it was mine to do what I wanted where. This was ridiculous that's ended a 30 year plus friendship that was 14 years ago I still miss her I have written to her to tell her that I how I feel but I've had no response. I will miss my best friend until the. Results to the facts that's the friendship will never be resurrected. On.
