A Bunch of Hope

I’m fundraising for Daffodil Day, to support advancements in life-saving cancer research.  

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive breast cancer subtype with the poorest survival outcomes and accounts for 15-20 percent of all breast cancer cases. This means a significant proportion of people diagnosed with breast cancer are faced with a cancer that responds poorly to current treatments.

While chemotherapy is the mainstay for TNBC, up to 70% of TNBC patients will not respond completely to this treatment. For these patients, the risk of the cancer spreading to other parts of the body – commonly the lungs, liver and brain – is much higher.

The answers are out there, we just need to support our best cancer researchers to find them.
