Join the fight this Daffodil Day

One of the hardest things you could ever face is watching a loved one fighting cancer. Just ask Paula, whose husband Andrew was diagnosed with stage 3 melanoma. Like most young people diagnosed with cancer, Andrew and Paula went  through an emotional rollercoaster ride. Hope, fear, desperation, guilt, anger, confusion, a sense of isolation – the couple had to deal with them all. Fortunately, Cancer Council were able to offer help throughout their fight with cancer because of generous fundraisers who answered our call.

One in two Australians will be diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85, which means that sadly most of us will be forced to face it in some way. But there is something you can do to help. Ms Lindell, along with Cancer Council Australia, is asking all Australians to buy a daffodil this Daffodil Day on Friday 27 August. Your donation could help save the life of someone you love, or help prevent another family from facing the same plight as Paula and Andrew.
