Mrs Montgomery told her children she had a ‘poorly arm’ while she was going through treatment and they have since helped her raise money for Cancer Research by taking part in Britain’s Biggest Breakfast campaign.
Sam, of Froxfield Road, Havant, said: ‘It’s thanks to research and treatment that I’m still here today and I can look forward to a future full of special moments with my family.
‘I’m determined to encourage people to do everything they can to raise money to help more people survive through research.’
