10 month old Bella has Leukemia

Yesterday beautiful 10 month old Bella Lay was diagnosed with Leukemia. Treatment is expected to start immediately. Her parents, who live in Hobart, will need to stay in Melbourne throughout the entire course of her treatment taking them away from their jobs/income and and making it expensive for family to visit etc.

Bella is the first child of Than Tun and Lay Ber. Than Tun (who some know as Damo) and Lay Ber have been married less than 2 years. Both came to our country via refugee camps in Thailand having fled Burma. Damo is a great mate to many of us, and has put in the hard yards as a landscaper to provide for his new family. Lay Ber came to Australia more recently.

The money raised in this campaign will be given directly to Bella’s parents to be used in whatever way they see fit.
