Story
To my dear family and friends
Most of you know of my encounter with cancer duing 2007-8. What you might not know is how healthy and fit I have gradually become since recovering! On Sunday August 14, I will be running (ahem, jogging) in the Sydney Morning Herald City to Surf for the very first time, raising funds for MCCR (Monaro Committee for Cancer Research). Why this extraordinary behaviour?
- This is an intensely personal celebration of my health and well-being.
- I want to acknowledge the special people who have supported me, in so many ways, through a difficult time. You know who you are. Most of you are here, some not. If I can also inspire or encourage others to see light at the end of what can seem like a very long tunnel, I will be an even happier woman. After all, if I can do this, you can too.
- I'm raising funds for MCCR, an award winning fundraising group that helps cancer sufferers on the Monaro, in practical, tangible ways. The women of MCCR were largely responsible for getting the Cooma Hospital Oncology Unit off the ground. So when I had to undergo a grim course of chemotherapy, I could do it there, and stay at home, sheltered by my nearest and dearest, rather than having to schlep to Canberra or Sydney. It made a mighty difference to me, not to mention Andy, Hugo, Roddy and Deuchar, after I had been away so much.
From the bottom of my very deep heart, thank you.

Monaro Committee for Cancer Research Incorporated
The Monaro Committee for Cancer Research was formed in 1996 by the daughter of a young Monaro mother who after a 5 year struggle lost her battle with cancer. Since its inception the mcCr has supported cancer outreach services on Snowy Monaro. In 2007 after much lobbying, a local oncology service was introduced to the Cooma Hospital. Local support raised in excess of $100,000 towards this project and today we have a successful outreach oncology service. mcCr is a local voluntary group of dedicated women working towards further cancer support and services for the Snowy Monaro Region.Your support will enable mcCr to continue this assistance for cancer sufferers.
