Home > virginlondonmarathon >Hey. I'm Ollie and I'm 18. I was diagnosed with Ewing's Sarcoma (bone cancer) in January 2009 and I filmed a special webumentary to share my experiences.
Filming started in October and every six weeks or so a professional film crew would follow me for a day. In between I filmed my own updates to let everyone know what was going on in my life. You can watch each individual webisode below and there's an archive with all my updates too.
Through my webumentary I wanted people to see what my life was like and meet everyone who helped and supported me including James, my CLIC Sargent Young People's Social Worker, and my big sister Georgie.
Georgie, and her boyfriend Ben, ran the first Virgin London Marathon in April 2010 for CLIC Sargent and I helped them to raise almost £50,000 for the Charity. I loved the experience so much that I've signed up to run the Virgin London Marathon 2011!
I hope you enjoy watching my webumentary.
Best wishes
Ollie
