What this really means

In my seventeen years of living, too many people in my life have been affected, battled, or lost their lives to cancer. It breaks my heart knowing that there are other people out there, who are currently sitting in that kind of situation. Helpless, afraid, waiting for hope.

Leukaemia is a truly evil force that grabs onto people and forces them into one of, if not, the biggest battles of their lives, 

This is why any donation to research, medicine, or equipment, helps brave and determined doctors, researchers, and workers each day to end the grip that blood cancer has on 170,000 Australians and their families. 

By donating to my page, you’ll help me raise funds and awareness for blood cancer, while supporting projects and services for patients and their families.
