Help me take a stand against blood cancer
In 2020, a year everyone struggled, my older brother was diagnosed with leukaemia. He is in remission now, but I remember the feeling of my dad telling me that he had cancer. It was like the world stopped for a minute. I remember that moment so viscerally, all I could think was 'so he's gonna die'. That was all that was going through my mind. Thankfully he is all ok now, but I don't want anyone else to feel the way I did in that moment, helpless.
That’s why I’m taking on the Leukaemia Foundation’s World’s Greatest Shave. By donating to my page, you’ll help me raise funds and awareness for blood cancer, and fuel life-changing research projects and support services for patients and their families.
Any amount – big or small – will make a real, tangible difference.
(:
