Twenty-one years ago we lost a truly beautiful woman—my mum, Dell. Her fight with cancer began with breast cancer when she was just 34 years old. She fought with courage, strength, and grace, and although cancer eventually took her from us, it never took away the incredible impact she had on everyone who knew her.
My mum really was something special.
She was kind, caring, and incredibly hardworking. She had a way of making people feel welcome and loved, and she brought so much laughter into our lives.
Even after all these years, I miss my mum every single day. I often find myself wondering what life might have looked like if she were still here—what conversations we would have, what moments she would have shared with us, and the memories we could have made together.
But I also know that she is still with us, in our hearts and in the way we live our lives.
That’s why I’m hosting this Pink Breakfast.
This event is not only about remembering my mum and celebrating the incredible person she was, but also about supporting others who are currently facing their own fight with breast cancer. It’s about raising awareness, showing support, and reminding people that they are not alone in their journey.
If coming together, wearing pink, sharing stories, and raising a little bit of money can help even one person through their fight, then it is absolutely worth it.
So this Pink Breakfast is for you, Mum.
To celebrate your strength.
To remember your love.
And to help others keep fighting.
For all woman diagnosed with cancer xx
