Hi my name is Samuel Weidenhofer and I’m fundraiser for Hollie Lockery.

I visited the Gold Coast after her mum nominated her, and meeting her in Woolworths is something I’ll never forget. I actually didn’t know if she’d know who I was but she did lol!

In January, she was diagnosed with cancer in her kidney, lungs and neck. Doctors have told her she may have 3 years without treatment, or up to 8 years with treatment.

The treatment she’s hoping to access is estimated to cost $67,000 AUD, and will involve travelling to Germany for specialised care.

She has three beautiful children 12, 16 and 19 including a 12-year-old with autism and additional learning difficulties. When I falling with her, her biggest fear wasn’t herself… it was leaving her kids and parents too soon.

The donations will go towards:

• The $67,000 AUD treatment she’s hoping to access (or a similar treatment, depending what is best with her scans

• Travel and accommodation as overseas treatment is likely required

• Covering everyday bills and living expenses to ease the pressure

• Creating meaningful memories with her children during this time

This isn’t just about treatment. It’s about time. It’s about helping a mum create moments her kids will hold onto forever.

If you choose to give, you’re not just donating you’re helping a family breathe a little easier and make memories that will last a lifetime.

Love Samuel Weidenhofer
