I’m doing this for my beautiful Nan, Matilda Mackie who was diagnosed with breast cancer at 100 years old and sadly passed just before her 102nd birthday. My Aunty Linda who is a survivor for over ten years now and who was my angel when I was diagnosed with stage three breast cancer in 2021. The after treatment can sometimes be the hardest part and I’m doing my best to be a survivor. Thinking of all those missing loved ones, those battling, those learning to thrive again and those supporting xxx

You have gone way too soon; I still have so many conversations to have. I will be thinking to you today as always, wish you could be walking beside me. Love you.

🌟 In loving memory of my dearest aunt, Mirell a true warrior who fought with grace and strength against cancer for many years. You were not only my rock during my own battle, but a shining light of courage and love in my life. Your spirit and resilience continue to inspire me every day, and your absence is felt deeply. I miss your laughter, your wisdom, and your unwavering love. Though you may be gone, your memory lives on in the hearts of all who were touched by your kindness and warmth. May you rest in peace, free from pain and suffering. You will always hold a special place in my heart, and I will cherish the memories we shared forever. Until we meet again, my dear aunt. 🌸💕

Pauline Dance
Pauline is a mother of three, two daughters and a son, and lives in the regional community of Griffith, NSW. She taught primary school for 38 years and was a scout leader for 20 years. Pauline was diagnosed with stage 3C ovarian cancer with “a tumour the size of a coffee cup” at the age of 63 – her symptoms felt like a vaginal prolapse. Before her diagnosis, Pauline and her family had not heard of ovarian cancer. Like many women, Pauline believed a pap smear checked for all gynaecological cancers. Pauline has always been an active community member and is committed to raising awareness of ovarian cancer. Her mission now is to encourage women to notice potential symptoms and get checked if something doesn’t feel right. https://www.anzgog.org.au/on-the-down-low/ ... With immensely heavy hearts we share our resilient and inspiring wife, mum and nan, Pauline Dance passed away from ovarian cancer. Pauline calls the last few years a journey, never a fight. Her journey is now complete. We celebrate a selfless, joyous and full life, packed into a too-short timeline. We continue her legacy of generosity and education. 💜Jeff, Pauline, Andrew, Mari, Billy, Lily, Hamish, Jenny, Gary, Oscar, Patrick, Alison and Bryce. Mum wanted to do the Mother's Day classic in Canberra well before her ovarian cancer diagnosis and when the event soley fundraised for ovarian cancer. Mother's Day is my birthday and I wish we could do this in person together xx
