Cancer has followed me from primary school to university.
I was in year 6 when cancer first knocked at our door.
My brother and sister were in high school around the corner from our house, so they got home first. I came inside and everyone was sitting around the table. I was the last to find out. I didn’t feel like they were telling me Dad had cancer. I felt like they were telling me he was going to die.
