Every Step for Mum 💜

This year, I’m taking part in Relay For Life for a reason that is incredibly close to my heart 💜

In February this year, my mum was diagnosed with stage 4 brain cancer. Since then, she has shown incredible strength, recovering from a brain bleed and swelling, which was a very scary time for our family. She is now beginning the next stage of her journey with six weeks of radiotherapy and chemotherapy 💪

Watching someone you love go through this is something you can never fully prepare for. Cancer doesn’t just impact the person diagnosed, it affects their whole family, their friends, and everyone around them 💜

That’s why this year, every step I take is for my mum, and for every family going through something similar.

I’ll be taking on the Relay For Life in Bunbury, and I’m setting myself the challenge of walking for the full 24 hours, from 10am on October 31st through to 10am on November 1st 🚶‍♀️ It’s going to be tough, but it’s nothing compared to what so many people, including my mum, are facing every day.

By supporting Relay For Life, we can help the Cancer Council continue to provide vital support services, fund research, and stand beside families when they need it most 💜

If you are able to donate, I would be so grateful. If not, your support and encouragement means just as much 🙏

Thank you for helping me support my mum, and so many others facing this battle. Together, we can make a difference 💜

So far this year I've helped provide:

657

Kids with a SunSmart education

16

Calls to trained cancer professionals on 13 11 20

8

Days of a PhD student's world-class research

My Updates

Shout out to Mum!

❤️ A huge shout out to my Mum ❤️

Last week marked the completion of six weeks of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Through every appointment, challenge and setback, she has faced it all with positivity, strength, grace and her trademark smile.

Now it's time for a well-earned rest with Dad, plenty of sunshine in the garden and some time to focus on recovery.

I am so incredibly proud of you, Mum. Love you always 😘

I also want to say a massive thank you to everyone who has supported my Relay For Life fundraiser so far. Thanks to your generosity, I have now raised over $1,000 for cancer council! Every donation, no matter the size, helps make a difference and means so much to our family.

Thank you all for your support, encouragement and donations to a cause that is so close to my heart.  ❤️

UK Donations

Thank you so much for all the support so far 💜 The messages, shares, and kind words honestly mean so much, and they really show what an amazing person Mum is. It’s been so special to see how many people care about and are supporting her.

It has also definitely locked me into completing this 24-hour walk… no backing out now! 😅

I know a few people in the UK have mentioned it’s been difficult to donate due to the page being in AUD ($). If you would still like to donate and feel comfortable doing so, you are welcome to transfer to my UK account and I will deposit it directly onto the fundraising page.
