I'm BAAACCCKKKK - and we all know what I think of cancer...
Well, as I get ready to start another March Charge, raising awareness and funds for the Cancer Council, I tried to reply to the question "How many years have you participated in the March Charge" - well the website only lets me go up to 7 years - this is my NINTH year, so ladies and gentlemen, I am deadly serious about this.
Many of you will know that cancer has affected my family over the years, and this year has been just that little bit closer to home.
Way too many good people are diagnosed with cancer every year in Australia, and that means that a helluva lot of other people are impacted as well.
The fewer people who have to hear the words "you have cancer", the happier I'lI be. So I am doing the Charge again. I will walk at least 350km during the month, and am looking to all my family and friends to support me by donating to the Cause - even if it is the price of a cup of coffee!
Every single dollar counts and will get us one step closer to beating cancer once and for all.
This is my second Charge without Billie the Wonder Dog, and she is very much in my mind as I set off again - she and I have walked a few kilometres for this cause (and I guess I pushed her for a few as well)!
So please, everyone, consider putting up a few dollars towards this cause - think about how you, or how people you care about, have been affected by cancer. Please put your hand in your wallet, and make a donation. You'll feel better, more positive, and you will gain the satisfaction of knowing that you have done something to help rid the world of cancer.
Remember, every dollar counts!
I'll do my best again to keep giving updates through the whole Charge (and even in the lead-up), lots of photos etc - you will see what a beautiful part of the world I live in and get to walk through every single day. This little fella flew up to have a chat while I was out walking yesterday - a good omen for the March Charge!
So far this year I’ve helped provide:
507 kids with a SunSmart education
23 calls to trained cancer professionals on 13 11 20
7 days of a PHD student’s world-class research
