Stage 4 Cancer Survivor Runs London Marathon

Katie Stevenson, a mother of two from England, was diagnosed with stage 4 incurable cancer in her 30s. Initially deemed healthy, she discovered a lump in 2020 and underwent intensive treatment at Colchester Hospital, including a mastectomy, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy, completing it in August 2021.

Less than a year later, Stevenson experienced a seizure, leading to the discovery that the cancer had spread. She was diagnosed with stage 4 incurable cancer and received further treatment, including surgery in central London. Despite facing challenges, she has continued to rebuild her life.

Stevenson achieved a major personal milestone by running the London Marathon in 2026. She has also regained her driving license and is focused on growing her business and cherishing time with her family. Her medical team at Colchester Hospital continues to support her adaptive treatment plan.
