My mother lost her very short battle with cancer on Anzac Day. I discovered the F*Cancer bracelet while on a trip to Vancouver to take my mother’s ashes home. While in White Rock I wandered into a small homewares store and saw a SoulFlower stand. The owner of the store told me the story and asked if I had heard of the F*Cancer bracelet. I had not.

Upon my return home I told my sister who is a ‘Jane McGrath’ Cancer Nurse here in Australia. She loved the idea so much that she wanted to buy one for herself and me, for my birthday in August. I received it last week, the first time we have been together since November 08. I just love it, and wear it all the time.

Yesterday whilst attending a cardiac appointment in Brisbane my specialist noticed the ECG waves engraved on the side of the bracelet. He took my hand and had a closer look saying, “You know what the engraving reminds me of….”.

He then looked at the words and roared with laughter, said “Does that say what I think it says?”. I told the story and he said he would order one for his wife who is an oncologist…..

Go the F*cancer bracelet and thank you to Susan for her generosity in art and research.
