Pinking up the Staffroom
Our Baked goodies are being received extremely well!My Expedition
All,
October is Breast cancer awareness month, something that is close to my heart (literally ?)
I have chosen this foundation to support, as we were one of the lucky ones who had access to a McGrath Breast care Nurse, receiving kindness, compassion and support from Rosie my McGrath breast care nurse at Bendigo Health.
The McGrath Foundation currently funds 185 McGrath Breast Care Nurses in communities right across Australia.
My Breast Care Nurse attended each of my initial appointments, she was there at the ready for both Bruce and I with tissues, kind words of reassurance and support.
She was able to relay what had been said by the specialists in plain language, when all became overwhelming.
She organised appointments, Cancer related Care packages, she was one of the first faces I saw after each surgery
She was an absolute godsend, she was the one constant.
She was the voice on the other end of the line checking in each week, she was the one we could call on to explain anything and everything, if anything wasn’t right she was there to help fix or find a solution.
This is only a small snapshot of the care provided by the McGrath Foundation Breast care nurses here in Bendigo, sadly not everyone is able to access this amazing service.

Pink is the colour of care
I’m fundraising to ensure that no one goes through breast cancer without the care of a McGrath Breast Care Nurse.
A breast cancer diagnosis can change your life in an instant and the impact can be felt right through your family, friends, and community.
McGrath Breast Care Nurses help individuals and their families affected by breast cancer by providing invaluable physical, psychological, and emotional support from the time of diagnosis and throughout treatment.
Supporting me to raise funds for this great cause is easy and you can help the McGrath Foundation reach their goal of 250 nurses by 2025, to work towards ensuring no one misses out on care.
Thank you so much for your support.
