A FANTASTIC FUTURE

By Lisa Head

I’m raising funds for the RBWH Foundation.

In June this year, I was diagnosed with breast cancer.
There was no family history of breast cancer, and my only symptoms was a small lump under my right armpit.  Following advice from my GP, I had a mammogram.
From that day, my life has changed.  The diagnosis is just a glitch, a roadblock in my amazing life journey.

I want to raise awareness and give back to the hospital, its patient care, innovative medical treatments and research.

It's quite a journey. Nothing I ever thought I'd be going through.  I'm so grateful for the love and support of family, friends and colleagues.  I'm so grateful for the incredible patient care that I am receiving.

I've worked in the public health system for over 15 years.  I understand the dedication, the tireless (and sometimes thankless) work of our teams.

Your generosity buys time for researchers to develop breakthrough treatments.  Time for doctors to consider new diagnoses and provide the best possible care for their patients.  And time for families to continue to enjoy every precious moment with the people they love, hopeful about a fantastic future.

All money donated to my fundraising page will assist in advancing life-saving research and patient care at the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital.

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!

A big shout out to the Team at Ascension Martial Arts for your generous donations! 👏
Fighting cancer and undergoing treatment is a fight that no one really understands until they go through it.  But with determination and having your Team behind you, the reward outweighs the challenge!
And a special thank you to my wonderful nephew Josh Betts.... you're a legend ❤
