Support my challenge to end pancreatic cancer
💜 Walking for Our Mum, Walking for Change 💜
In November 2023, our world changed forever when we lost our beautiful mum to pancreatic cancer.
She was the heart of our family — the one who held us together with her strength, her laughter, and her unconditional love. When she first began showing symptoms, we had no idea it was something so serious. By the time she was diagnosed, the cancer had already spread. Just six months later, she was gone.
It all happened so fast. Too fast.
Pancreatic cancer doesn’t wait. It’s one of the most aggressive and deadliest cancers. Early symptoms are rare, and for most people — like our mum — it’s already too late by the time they find out.
This September, my brother Trav is walking 75km to honour the 75 Australians who lose their lives to pancreatic cancer every week.
He’s walking for our mum — for the love she gave so freely, for the strength she showed in the face of something so cruel, and for the chance to stop other families from going through what we did.
🔬 Right now:
- 12 Australians are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer every day
- It’s the 3rd biggest cancer killer in Australia
- Research is the only way forward
We can’t bring Mum back. But we can fight for the future — for earlier detection, for better treatment, and for hope.
💜 Please consider donating to support Trav’s walk, to honour our beautiful mum, and to help change the outcome for families still facing this battle.
We will remember her.
We will honour her.
And we will fight for her — and for everyone still fighting.

My Tribute Post
💜 In loving memory of our Mum 💜 There are no words big enough to capture what our mum meant to us. She was our safe place, our biggest cheerleader, the calm in every storm. Her love was unconditional, fierce, and steady — the kind of love that shaped who we are and continues to guide us, even now. In May 2023, our beautiful mum was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. By the time we found out, it had already spread. That’s the cruel reality of this disease — it hides in silence until it’s too late. She faced her diagnosis with incredible strength and quiet courage. Even in the hardest moments, she thought of us first. She held on for as long as she could, but just six months later, in November 2023, we had to say goodbye. Our hearts are still broken. Pancreatic cancer stole so much from us — precious time, moments we’ll never get back, and a future we imagined with her in it. But it will never take the love she gave, the memories she left us with, or the impact she had on everyone who knew her. We miss her every single day. We honour her with every step forward. And we carry her love with us — always.
