Tralee is a survivor of lymphoma and an inspiration to all sharing her personal journey with cancer and is one of two wonderful and amazing Ambassadors for the 2017 Eurobodalla Relay for Life.
Jess Bourke is the events other ambassador and cancer survivor, who became a mum for the first time on December 5.
Tralee and her husband and stalwart Ron, together raised thousands of dollars for upgrades and improvements to the oncology Ward in Moruya.
After seeing what was available for local cancer sufferers, Tralee decided to make it better for others dealing with cancer and put all her energy into helping out, while still recovering herself.
She will be at the Relay for Life in 2017 to share her story in March next year. She and Ron were recognized for the efforts with improving oncology services locally, in 2014 as Eurobodalla Citizens of the Year.
The relay is on March 18-19 at Bill Smyth Oval in Narooma, come rain, hail or shine and some teams have already formed and have started raising funds, which is fantastic.
Every dollar raised helps local people battling cancer in one way or another and includes, transport, counselling, nursing care, information, education, emotional support and much, much more.
The relay event is a 24-hour continuous event where participants, visitors and volunteers come together to reflect, remember, celebrate and walk together to raise money to help beat cancer.
The event will also feature music and entertainment, a health information hub, fun activities for kids and wonderful ceremonies to celebrate life and lives lost to cancer. You can join us to fight cancer!
