Wall of Hope

To celebrate the long term survivors of brain cancer (like me) who can feel invisible at times but are lucky enough to be back living their life to the fullest.
And advocating for brain cancer.

My beautiful Mother was diagnosed with Stage 4 Glioblastoma in July 2016
She passed away on Anzac Day in 2017

There’s not a day that goes by that we don’t miss her or think of her..

I’m taking part in the Walk4BrainCancer in her memory, to honour her life and to help raise awareness and hope for other families facing this heartbreaking disease.
Until we meet again, Mum.
You will forever be loved, forever missed and forever in our hearts. 💜

Walking for Simon Clinton age 55 our brother inlaw
Simon’s memory will live on in our hearts forever xxx

Walking for Terry, husband and father. Taken at 36 years old after a 16 month battle with glioblastoma.

Walking for Sara and for all the incredible doctors and nurses who treated me and so many others every day.

Walking for Ryan
Our beautiful son Ryan was diagnosed with brain cancer at 18. He fought with courage and determination , giving us 25 precious years filled with love and memories we will treasure forever.

We miss you more than words can ever say, Ryan.
Your life mattered. Your story matters . Your memory will live on forever. Xxxx

I have just endured a 15 month journey through an operation to remove as much of the brain tumour as was possible, followed by some ‘mopping up’ via radiation treatment and subsequently 12 months of chemotherapy that ended last week. I had fantastic family and friend support. My tennis fraternity mates suggested I seek a backhand from the brain surgeon whilst having the tumour removed – and it is the only downside of my 15 month journey – as whilst I asked he specialised in the brain not backhands. At this stage all is good (except for my backhand) – and may it continue. A long journey but not an impossible one. Keep family and friends close. Let’s find a cure rather than endure the ‘luck of the draw’ long journies.

Thankyou for all the support in the fight against Brain Cancer. If we can find a cure and prevent others from going through what many have done, what a wonderful day that would be

Walking in memory of my husband Con.
I walk not only in his memory, but for everyone who is still fighting, for the families walking beside them, and for the hope that one day there will be better treatments and, ultimately, a cure.

Together, we keep walking, raising awareness and holding onto hope for a future where no one has to face this journey. 💜

CHELSEA, you battle everyday to just be the you ,you always are , brain cancer has held you back in time with things you enjoyed doing but you try everyday to just be you. be there for dylan and the kids ,I wish there was a thing that would just magically take it away from you, till then we shall let people know about brain cancer .. love and hugs Carleena xoxo

Walking in memory of my brother Grant. Gone too soon, but he fought this awful disease as hard as he could, aided by the love and care of his wife Fiona.

I’m walking in memory of my dad and for everyone impacted by brain cancer. ❤️

Walking for those we have lost, those still fighting and the families beside them.

Together, we’re walking towards better treatments and a cure 💜

Walking in memory of Mum and for every family facing this devastating disease.
