I'M SWIMMING FOR In loving memory of my Ma, 🎀 "Devi Rasaiah" 🎀

Three years ago, I finished my own cancer treatment and stepped into life in remission. 🎗️✨ Going through that journey changed me forever. It tested my limits, but it also showed me the profound power of hope, community, and survival. Today, I am sharing my story not just to look back, but to give hope, strength, and light to anyone still navigating the shadows of post-treatment life. You are stronger than you know, and there is a beautiful, vibrant life waiting for you on the other side. This November, I am diving into a brand-new challenge to honor my own survival and to remember the woman who gave me everything. 🌊💖 On November 17, 2019, I lost my wonderful Mum to breast cancer. It has been 7 years since she passed, but her strength, love, and memory are with me every single day—especially during my own battle. To celebrate her life, honor my own journey, and fight back against the disease that affects so many of us, I am committing to swimming 18km throughout the month of Novemberto raise vital funds for breast cancer research and support. Every stroke I take is for Mum, for my own health, and for every single person who has ever faced a cancer diagnosis. Every dollar raised helps get us closer to a future where no more families have to say goodbye too soon. If you are able to support my swim, any donation—big or small—would mean the absolute world to me and my family. If you can’t donate, sharing this post to help spread the word and raise awareness would be a massive help! 👇 Click the link below to donate or follow my progress: https://fundraise.nbcf.org.au/tmpuploads/user-qr-code-poster-280178.pdf Thank you so much for your love, support, and for keeping my Mum’s memory alive with me while celebrating this milestone of health and hope. 🕊️✨ #BreastCancerAwareness #CancerSurvivor #Remission #SwimForACause #InLovingMemory #Fundraiser #ForMum 🎀 🌸🎀🌸🎀🌸🎀🌸🎀🌸🎀🌸🎀

9 people in Australia die from breast cancer every single day.
