In November 2008 Paul Bolt and his brother, Alan, took up the challenge to complete a 12 day trek to Everest base camp in memory of their brother Ian who died at a young age 17 years ago with bowel cancer and Paul’s wife who has battled with ovarian cancer and the genetic possibility of having breast cancer. It turned out to be the challenge of a lifetime with many exciting and almost disastrous events during their trip.
