My Story

12 Sep 2024

Three months ago i was diagnosed with Metastatic cancer in the stomach and Liver. My immunotherapy treatment has been a lifesaver, thanks to Professor Victoria Atkinson, here in Brisbane and already i am well on the way to a complete recovery

This October, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Because right now, cancer is the largest single killer of children from disease in Australia – over 700 children are diagnosed with cancer every year and sadly, 3 die every week.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

And so I am riding and raising funds to support the Children's Medical Research Institute to continue their work into the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and finding a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support my challenge by making a donation through my fundraising page to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Together, we can save little lives.

Thanks for your support.
