Fundraising for Otago Community Hospice

Dunedin, Otago

Late last year my mum was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer which, as it turns out is inoperable.

Mum, being the strong willed, "I don't take sh*t from nobody", Glaswegian lass is giving it everything she has to fight this for as long as she can.

With the support and care of the hospice, mum has now started her treatment but as a result has lost her hair.

In support of mum and to raise awareness, I'm going to shave my head and that includes my beard.

Please help me raise funds for this amazing group at Otago Community Hospice who provide support and care for those in need and their families.

Final Thank You From Mum  26 May 2023

On the 22nd of May, a sunny Monday morning, Mum passed away peacefully in her sleep with Graham by her side with her children, Scott, Stacey, and myself, joining Graham in the short minutes after her passing.

I just wanted to reiterate how humbled and grateful mum was for all of the kind messages and donations received by all of you. The care and support she received by the Otago Hospice during her stay there was outstanding and this organisation with their incredible staff are so deserving of all and any donations received.

Thank you again.
