Support my challenge to end pancreatic cancer
At the start of this year, I lost my nanny to pancreatic cancer, and it still feels so hard to believe how quickly everything changed. Just a few days before Christmas, we found out about her diagnosis, and from that moment life felt like it was spinning out of control. There wasn’t much time to process, to prepare, or to even begin to understand what was happening before she was taken from us. The speed and aggressiveness of pancreatic cancer is something I never truly understood until it touched my family, and now it’s left such a deep mark on my heart. Because of this, I want to do what I can to support research into pancreatic cancer—to bring more awareness, better treatments, and hopefully, one day, a cure, so that other families don’t have to go through what mine did.
This September, I'm walking 75km for the 75 Australians who die from pancreatic cancer each week.
Pancreatic cancer is the toughest common cancer, and because early-stage pancreatic cancer rarely causes symptoms, the survival rates are devastating.
Right now, 12 Australians are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer every day. It is the 3rd biggest cancer killer in Australia.
But research can change this. Your support will fund groundbreaking pancreatic cancer research and improve survival rates.
So this September, I'm challenging myself to get up, get moving and walk 75km to fight this terrible disease.
Please make a donation to support me, and together...
We will remember them. We will honour them. We will fight for them.
