Meet Holli
In January 2022, Holli was diagnosed with Stage 4 Glioblastoma a fast-growing and aggressive brain tumour, following a seizure while at the gym.
The diagnosis was a complete shock, as by all accounts Holli was fit, healthy, and hadn't been experiencing any signs of illness.
After being rushed to Brisbane for surgery and radiation, Holli continued her chemotherapy and treatment plan at Toowoomba Hospital. In April this year she finished her last round of chemotherapy and is on the road to recovery.
“Cancer doesn’t discriminate, I’m a prime example of that. There’s no prior history, living a fairly healthy life, you think it’s not gonna happen to me but then it does.”
support the vital work of Toowoomba hospital oncology unit
Your generous donation will help us create a more comfortable, private, and welcoming space for patients receiving cancer care and treatment at Toowoomba Hospital.
We're raising funds to refurbish and upgrade the Toowoomba Hospital Oncology Unit's tired and outdated patient waiting areas, examination rooms, and staff work areas.
Through our End of Financial Year Appeal, we're aiming to raise $250,000 by June 30 to help relieve anxiety and bring comfort to patients who are going through one of the toughest things they'll ever have to face.
Help make a difference
By making a tax-deductible donation by June 30 you'll help make a difference in the lives of cancer patients receiving life-saving treatment and care with Darling Downs Health.
