One month with a buzzcut! Check out the coverage from WIN News Cairns on World Ovarian Cancer Day. Super grateful that was interviewed to contribute to the story...and of course to have Tom Braes and my beautiful daughter, Ava, there to support me.

10 years ago...when Mum was first diagnosed, our community rallied around us. Memories of this really fill us with gratitude. This photo was from Natasha Srhoj who received her 'Fight Like a Girl' shirt, along with a note from Mum. 🥰

Is anyone still wearing their 'Fight Like a Girl' shirt? Would love to see some pictures...be sure to Amy Braes - Ovarian Cancer Research in your photos 💟
