After Melanie’s first day of treatment for aggressive breast cancer, she had to make the 90-minute drive home – exhausted, fatigued, and unwell.
This is all too common for Australians who live in rural areas and have no option but to make tiring and lengthy journeys for cancer treatment.
Thankfully, Melanie was able to stay at Fight Cancer Foundation’s Hilltop Accommodation Centre which was close to her cancer clinic for the duration of her treatment. It alleviated the financial and emotional pressure of having to travel long distances alone.
Many people like Melanie will be spending Christmas away from home as they fight cancer.
Your gift today will help cancer patients who must travel long distances to receive lifesaving treatment.
Your special gift will help ensure that people fighting cancer will have a welcoming, stable home away from home at one of our purpose-built accommodation centres this Christmas.
Most families experience feelings of concern, anxiety or worry about how to manage the financial impact of cancer. The financial burden associated with cancer and its treatment includes out of pocket medical expenses, travel and accommodation costs, medication and even things like parking. It also concerns the loss of income, or income instability associated with serious illness and recovery.
