In August, I’ll be plunging into cold water for the almost 1 in 2 Australians who will be diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85. 

Please donate to my challenge!

The funds I raise from my Daffodil Day Dip challenge will help power world-class cancer research to save lives.

Your support means so much to me. Please help create a cancer free future by donating to my fundraiser now! 💛

Today’s dip was freezing but worth it. Someone suggested I do them in my wet suit but that feels like cheating. 😎🤣

My little brother

You could say my little brother is one of the lucky ones, diagnosed in 2017 with Hodgkins lymphoma he’s still alive today. 

What you don’t see is the toll this has taken on his body, on his health and on so many other things that are of importance to him. 

Cancer doesn’t discriminate, here we had a healthy man who didn’t smoke, rarely drank and kept an active lifestyle. He was 23 when he looked his mortality in the eyes and said “not today”.  

And you know what he said when he told me? He talked about kids with cancer and how if there were a number of people who have to get cancer every year he’d rather it be him over a child. 

That’s the sort of incredible man my brother is, and that’s why this year I’m choosing to not only donate to the cancer council but to fundraise, so that we can have more survivors like Alex who make this world a better place. 

Thank you to our Supporters
