Oscar lost his battle with brain cancer at the age of just 14. A smart and quick-witted boy, he had a cheeky sense of humour and a huge heart. He loved his family, friends and everything to do with basketball. He left a massive imprint on everyone he met.
Oscar endured brain surgery, two rounds of radiation and genetic testing of his tumour with experimental drug therapy in an attempt to fight this rare and aggressive brain cancer. So much more needs to be done to tackle this cruel disease, which can only be achieved through further research and funding.
Children's Cancer Institute exists solely to put an end to childhood cancer, through medical research.
It's not if. It's when.

Tomorrow the hsc starts and i’m thinking about all the ways you would’ve smashed this exam, and all the ways you would’ve found the fun in it and encouraged us all to find the fun in it too. I miss sending you stupid messages, I miss drawing with you in nonscripture, but most importantly I feel upset that you didn’t get a chance at all this growing up stuff and that we didn’t get to do it together. Love you Oscar. Mia, Jazz and I will never forget all of the fun. Gonna smash this exam for you Zebra King.

Hey Mate, I was just checking in and I saw some donations and messages from some of your friends. It's such a bittersweet feeling. Missing you so much but being so proud that you made an impact on all who knew and loved you. I love you mate, Dad.

i’m sending so much love to your family as it’s now only days before our year 12 graduation. What would have been your graduation, even for those of us who didn’t get given the chance to know you, you are in all of Year 12’s heart and are missed fondly.

Sorry that I didn't really ever know you. I do remember us annoying each other. It's not fair that you won't know what it would be like to graduate, or go to university. You should be leaving school with the rest of us in a few days time. Even though nobody knows what you would be doing right now if you could, you are still positively impacting the lives of many. Wish I could have known you and annoyed you a bit more :) I hope you're okay, wherever you are.
