Golden locks to fall
Current statistics indicate that 1 in 7 women will develop breast cancer, well I’m now the second in my family of 5 girls!
Since it’s now quite certain that I will lose my golden locks to chemotherapy, I have decided to take control, and shave my head as part of a fundraiser for the National Breast Cancer Foundation Australia (the pink ribbon one). With such fair skin you probably won’t get to see much of my bare scalp, I’ll instead don a nice scarf or a hat.
So come out for a fun day in Lockington when I shave my golden locks (full details will be added as soon as finalised), AND in the meantime, please pledge your donations, to this cause that is quite literally close to my heart.
I'm hosting an event because I want a world where there are ZERO deaths from breast cancer. I believe every death from breast cancer is one too many. To achieve this, I’m raising funds for more research. All donations made to this page will help do exactly that.
The National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) is Australia’s leading national body funding game-changing breast cancer research with money raised entirely by the Australian public.
I really believe research is the best way to prevent deaths, and improve how breast cancer is diagnosed, managed and treated. NBCF is working towards one goal: zero deaths from breast cancer by 2030. Together we can help them get there.
Click 'Donate' to make a secure online donation and help me reach my goal. Every donation, big or small, will help me get there. Please donate today.
All donations over $2 are tax deductible and you will be issued with a tax-deductible receipt via email as soon as you make your donation.
Thank you so much for your support!
Alison

A healthy lifestyle 'reduces' the risk, BUT doesn't 'eliminate' the possibility. Early intervention DOES increase probability of a better outcome, SO check them regularly, and immediately follow up any irregularity.
