Gina's Cancer Battle

Donation protected
Gina, the founder of Golden Oldies has been diagnosed with cancer. Gina is fiercely independent and has always put her rescue before herself time and time again. This time will be no different even though she tries to assure us she will put herself first. For anyone that knows Gina, knows this is impossible and the reason we love her so damn much as well as wanting to tear our hair out.

We know Gina needs support now more than ever.

Gina had a huge health scare just over two years ago. She battled it quietly and didn't want to draw attention to her battle. Still rescuing and thinking of the dogs that needed her as she sat in hospital recovering.

This time will be no different except for this. Gina has gone without time and time again because she puts her all into her beloved rescue and the dogs. She has gone without food or her own medication at times because she always puts animals and other people first. Gina has sold almost everything she owns just so that animals are given a chance where others would just discard them. Gina is always the first to help others in crisis and we feel it is most definitely the time that we all pitch in to help Gina at the time she needs it the most.

Gina doesn't do it for the attention or for praise. It us just who Gina is intrinsically. No one can fake the dedication she has. It is part of her soul.

This new battle ahead will see her do the same. It is who Gina is and she cannot be stopped! Her closest friends know she says she will try to concentrate on herself first but we know Gina too well. Even as Gina comes to terms with what lays ahead, instead of sitting still she is filling in time working on helping the old neglected dogs.

Gina doesn't want a fuss or attention but I feel like we can't let Gina hide and say she is fine while she struggles.

Whether we raise a dollar or $1000 this money is for Gina and/or her family to use as they see fit. For medications, for specialist appointments, for petrol to get to appointments, for an air conditioner, for a bill or two, just anything at all. Just something to take away some financial stress that this cancer journey is going to bring with it.

This is for Gina, this is not rescue, this is not for anyone but Gina and/or her family.

We believe in Gina's ability to beat cancer but nobody can deny that the ride is going to be very tough at times. We just want to make it a little easier and a lot more comfortable where we can.

Her dear friend Tony sent Gina this song to her yesterday. The people who have struggled through this journey themselves talk of not having to do it alone and how they needed support. I ask you to watch it. It is going to take a lot to get through this and Gina deserves to not have to fight this alone, quietly or dismiss her own health because she doesn't want to create a fuss.
