Poppy Grace's Story
Diagnosed with cancer at just 11 weeks of age, beautiful Poppy Grace demonstrated strength and resilience from the very beginning, inspiring courage in others. She had smiles a plenty, and she gave them out liberally, ensuring she made eye contact and acknowledged everyone in the room. This empathetic nature grew with her, and she had social intelligence well beyond her years.
In her 20 short months of life, Poppy inspired many people to face their challenges with renewed vigour and enthusiasm. She will live on through our collective positive actions, and that is why Carly and Tresne are passionately encouraging others to donate blood in her honour.
Poppy’s parents have also begun fundraising to support Children’s Cancer Institute’s research into infant leukaemia.
