Supporting Will — Our Brave Little Superhero
Our life has taken a massive turn over the past few weeks. Our beautiful four-year-old son, Will, has been diagnosed with Pre-B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL) — a moment that shattered us in ways we can’t fully describe.
The good news is that Will’s prognosis is positive. He has one of the more common and treatable types of leukaemia. But the road ahead is long, and it’s already been incredibly tough.
Will’s treatment plan involves 6–12 months of intensive chemotherapy, followed by 12–18 months of maintenance oral chemo. It’s going to be a long and challenging two years — but we will walk every step of it with him.
That’s why I’m taking part in the World’s Greatest Shave — to raise money for the Leukaemia Foundation and to stand in solidarity with Will, who will soon lose his hair due to treatment. I’ll be shaving my head in a few weeks, and I’d love your support.
Whether it’s $5 or $50, every donation helps fund research, provide support to families like ours, and bring us closer to a future where no child has to face this.
Please donate if you can — and share this page to help us spread the word. We’re so grateful for your love, support, and generosity.
For Will. For every child fighting leukaemia.
