I’ve been thinking deeply about this for a long time now, and I’ve decided to shave my head bald. This decision is very personal to me and is a way to honour the memory of my family and friends who have died from cancer. Seeing their strength and courage during such difficult times has profoundly impacted me. By shaving my head, I want to pay tribute to their battles and show solidarity with all those who have faced or are facing similar struggles.
I'm fundraising for the World's Greatest Shave
Blood cancer is Australia's hidden cancer crisis. There are 140,000 families facing blood cancer right now. And it takes the lives of 16 Australians every day.
These numbers are set to double by 2035. Unless we do something about it. That's why I've signed up for the World's Greatest Shave.
I'm raising funds for the Leukaemia Foundation to give Australians facing blood cancer life-changing practical and emotional support. And to fund critical research, bringing us closer to the day when zero lives are lost to blood cancer.
Will you be part of my World's Greatest Shave community and donate to my page?
Your donation means that together, we're working to stop blood cancer in its tracks.
Any amount – big or small – will make a real, tangible difference.

Giving a donation is a great effort but being heal is greater. I pray to Yahweh for total healing for all those affected by this deadly disease.
