This September, I’m Going The Distance for the wonderful Team at Chris O'Brien Lifehouse who have helped us so much with Sophie’s care this year.
In February this year our 16yo daughter, Sophie, was diagnosed with an aggressive bone cancer on her knee and femur. Since the diagnosis we have spent on average 2.5 weeks a month in Chris Obrien Lifehouse whilst she has had chemo and recovered from related illnesses. We have 3 months of chemo still to go and then at least another 5 years of check ups.
The staff have been incredible - so kind and caring. The hospital are also conducting clinical trials (of which Sophie is part of) to learn more about this rare cancer.
If anyone wants to join us for a walk or has a dollar or 2 to contibute - we would be very grateful.
IWith your support, every kilometre will count towards ensuring the very best cancer care is available to everyone in our community.
All donations will help Chris O’Brien Lifehouse continue to provide compassionate, research-driven cancer care, as well as holistic support services for people with cancer.
Every kilometre counts, can I count on you?
