You’ll be helping people like jacqui
At only 37 years old, Jacqui experienced the fight of her life when she was diagnosed with aggressive HER-2 breast cancer.
Jacqui endured 16 rounds of chemotherapy, 17 rounds of immunotherapy, 25 rounds of radiotherapy, a mastectomy and will be on hormone blockers for at least the next 10 years.
Despite her heartbreaking battle, Jacqui is grateful to still be here with her young daughter, Evie. Without research, Jacqui knows her story could have ended differently.
“If I was diagnosed 20 years, or even 10 years ago, I might not be here today. I really am lucky.”
Join us by signing up as a host for The Longest Table so we can fight for people like Jacqui and #ForkCancer.
